Updating all repos in a folder?

I've got a folder - 'Repos' - which contains the repos that I'm interested in. These have been cloned from bitbucket, but I guess github could be a source too.

Repos
    - music-app
    - elephant-site
    - node-demo

Is there a git command that I can use which steps thru every folder in Repos and sees if there are new commits on the server, and the download the new stuff? And if there are new commits locally, then upload these.

This is an old question, but i would like to suggest using myrepos.

You have a lot of version control repositories. Sometimes you want to update them all at once. Or push out all your local changes. Myrepos provides a mr command, which is a tool to manage all your version control repositories.

cd repos
find . -type d -depth 1 -exec mr register {} \
mr update

I don't see any fix for this in the given answers, but a great way to modify the selected answer in order to avoid pulling on "./" repo is to also set the mindepth value on find. The following expression solves the OP question while also removing the error experienced by the selected answer:

cd repos
find . -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d -exec sh -c '(cd {} && git pull)' ';'

This works for most *nix systems and should work for mac.

  1. cd into the parent directory of the repositories you would like to update
  2. Then run the following
find . -type d -depth 1 -exec git --git-dir={}/.git --work-tree=$PWD/{} pull origin \;

With powershell you can do it like that:

Get-ChildItem -Recurse -Depth 2 -Force | 
Where-Object { $_.Mode -match "h" -and $_.FullName -like "*\.git" } |
ForEach-Object {
  cd $_.FullName
  cd ../
  git pull
  cd ../
}

This will go into each directory and look for a .git folder and just run git pull in each of these folders.

For Windows, I'm using below in .cmd file. It can easily be extended to do something more or something else:

for /d %%i in (*) do (
  pushd "%%i"
  git pull
  popd
)

For Windows, this should do it for you via a Command Prompt:

cd c:\repos
for /d %a in (*.*) do cd c:\repos\%a && git pull

Once you go back to the GitHub client, you should see the updates.

What I have is a scriptlet that does something like:

for d in *
cd $d
git pull
cd ..

(Yes, it has a few extra bells and whistles, in that I have a few hg repos, and others I manage in git from SVN upstream.)

Try this:

cd repos
find . -maxdepth 1 -type d -exec sh -c '(cd {} && git pull)' ';'

To maintain several repos, you can use git submodule.

Use git submodule add to add a repo as a submodule and use git submodule foreach git pull to update the repos.

This method is like you have a super project, with several git projects in it.
