git-foreach is a lightweight utility designed to execute a command in each Git repository within a directory and its
subdirectories. It's particularly useful for performing bulk operations, such as git pull or git status, across
multiple repositories simultaneously.
To use git-foreach, simply prepend your desired command with git-foreach. The command will be executed in each Git
repository found in the current directory and all its subdirectories.
git-foreach <command>For instance, if you want to execute git pull in each repository, you would use:
git-foreach "git pull"By default, git-foreach will stop executing if the command fails in one of the repositories. If you want the execution
to continue despite failures, you can append || : to the command. This will mask the error and allows git-foreach to
continue processing the remaining repositories.
git-foreach "git pull || :"Pre-built binaries are available for Windows, Linux, and macOS. You can download them from
