How to get latest on multiple projects via GIT/GITBASH

I have multiple projects in a folder and I want to get latest.

For example:

C:\Projects\Project 1
C:\Projects\Project 2
C:\Projects\Project 3

Normally I would open up Git Bash, direct to one project (e.g. 'cd C:\Projects\Project 1'), then type 'git pull'.
After this, repeat on every other project.

Is there a quicker/shorter/less time consuming way to get latest on all of my projects?

If the submodule approach does not work for you, you could use a simple script written in Bash:

#!/bin/bash

for dir in */
do
    echo "Updating $dir"
    cd "$dir"
    git pull
    cd ..
done

If you define it as a function, you can even make it reusable for other commands:

function for_all_dirs ()
{
    for dir in */
    do
        echo "Updating $dir"
        cd "$dir"
        $*
        cd ..
    done
}

Call this with for_all_dirs git pull and it will pull in all of the directories.

Another approach is to declare each of your repos in a parent project repo, as submodules.
You can configure those submodules to follow their respective master branch

cd c:\Projects\Parent
git submodule add -b master Project1 /url/Project1

That way, from the parent repo c:\Projects\Parent, a simple cmmand would update every submodule at once:

git submodule update --remote
