git-pull-all 1.0.0

git-pull-all

A CLI tool that recursively finds and updates all git repositories in a directory.

Install

dotnet tool install -g git-pull-all
dotnet tool install -g git-fetch-all

Usage

# Pull all repos under the current directory
git pull-all

# Pull all repos under a specific path
git pull-all ~/github

# Only fetch, don't merge
git fetch-all

# Run sequentially for predictable output ordering
git pull-all --sequential

# Limit parallelism
git pull-all -j 4

# Pass extra arguments to git
git fetch-all -- --all --prune

How it works

• Recursively searches for directories containing .git
• Detects regular repos, linked worktrees, and bare repo worktree layouts (e.g. from git-wt)
• git-pull-all runs git pull in each repo (respects your git config like pull.rebase)
• git-fetch-all runs git fetch in each repo
• Parallel by default for speed, --sequential for deterministic ordering
• Worktrees sharing the same repository only fetch once
