SYNOPSIS

   group-git [option] (git-command) -- [args]

 OPTIONS:
  Filtering:
  -s --skip[=]regexp
                Skip any project matching this regexp
  -m --match[=]regexp
                Only process any project matching this regexp
  -l --local    Ignore any management type and just look at what is checked out
                Only useful if you have a group-git.yml file defining Github,
                Bitbucked or Gitosis types.
  -t --tag[=]str
                Only opperate on repositories tagged with str (tags can be
                specified in the config file see --man or with a file .[tag].tag
                in the project directory)

  Finding projects:
  -r --recurse  Recurses into subdirectories to check if they contain git
                repositories rather than only stopping at the current level.

  Output:
  -p --page     Turns on paginating out put uses $PAGER environment variable if
                set or 'less -Rx4SFX' if not.
     --no-page  Turn off pagination.
  -q --quiet    Don't show project names before running git on the directory
  -v --verbose  Show more details

DESCRIPTION

Run any git command over all repositories in the current directory.

Configuration

If you have a config file set up in the current directory (group-git.yml or some other suffix group-git file supported by Config::Any) extra functionality becomes available if you use Github, Bitbucket or Gitosis as your repository remote store. The config file will be read to supply the appropriate user credentials or in the case of gitosis the admin project location.

With this extra information both the pull and the update commands will try to clone any repository that are not currently checked out in the current directory.

 eg group-git.yml
 ---
 # Type may be any of Github, Bitbucket or Gitosis
 type: Github
 #type: Bitbucket
 #type: Gitosis

 # if username or password are missing they will be prompted for
 username: joeblogs@example.com
 password: securepass

 # for github you can specify an access token if using 2 factor auth
 #access_token: ....

 # Gitosis uses it's git url which needs to be defined or will be prompted for
 #gitosis: gituser@gitosis.server.com:gitosis-admin.git

 # Global Exclude a git project
 #exclude:
 #  - project_not_to_be_managed
 #  - ...

 # Global Include only these projects (if mentioned only projects listed will be
 # processed any others found will be ignored)
 #include:
 #  - project_of_interest_1
 #  - project_of_interest_2
 #  - ...

 # Set up tags for groups of projects so you can opperate only on that tag
 # Tags can also be defined with the projects directory creating a file with
 # a name of the format ".[tag].tag"
 #  eg to tag a project as mytag create a file .mytag.tag
 #tags:
 #  mytag:
 #    - project1
 #    - project2
 #  myothertag:
 #    - project2
 #    - project3

For Github and Bitbucket if username or password are missing you will be prompted to enter the details.
