Find and pull (git repos)

FAP is a Bash script designed to simplify updating multiple Git repositories within a specified directory. It scans for Git repositories, presents a list of options, and allows you to update selected repositories or all at once.

Usage

./fap.sh [TARGET_DIR]

• TARGET_DIR: The directory where the script will search for Git repositories. If no directory is specified, it defaults to the current directory.

Options

• -h, --help, --usage: Display the help message and exit.
• -a, --all : Update all repositories without prompting.
• --dry-run : List repositories that would be updated without updating.

Input Examples

• all: Update all repositories.
• 0 2 6-4: Update repositories by specifying indices and ranges (e.g., repositories 0, 2, and 6 to 4).

How It Works

1. The script searches for Git repositories (.git directories) in the target directory.
2. It lists all found repositories by index.
3. You input either all to update all repositories or provide indices and ranges (e.g., 0 2 6-4).
4. The selected repositories are updated in parallel using git pull.

Example

./fap.sh ~/projects

Found Git repositories in ~/projects:
[0] ~/projects/repo1/.git
[1] ~/projects/repo2/.git
[2] ~/projects/repo3/.git

Enter repositories to update (e.g., 'all', '0 2 6-4'): all
Updating ~/projects/repo1
Updating ~/projects/repo2
Updating ~/projects/repo3
Update complete.
