GIT: update ALL REPOS in current directory

If you have a ZILLION GIT repositories in your current workspace you may benefit from a Bash shell command that does operations on all of them at one swoop.







function git_all_REPOS_in_current_directory() {
    WORKING_DIR=$PWD
   
    for DIRECTORY in ls -d */
    do
        #echo "directory: $DIRECTORY"
        cd $WORKING_DIR/$DIRECTORY
        pwd
        git fetch
        # do more as need like git rebase, etc. I prefer to do it MANUALLY
        # get modules up to date
        git submodule foreach git fetch
        git submodule foreach git rebase
    done
}

My favorite quotations..


“A man should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”  by Robert A. Heinlein
