multipush

• github.com/cmdjohnson/multipush

DESCRIPTION:

This is multipush, a nifty tool to safely back up your source code from multiple Git repos to one or more remotes.

FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

You probably know the command:

$ git push origin master

You can use this just fine for one, maybe a couple of repos.

If you have more than a couple of repos, this becomes unmanageable.

This is where multipush comes in.

SYNOPSIS:

$ multipush

REQUIREMENTS:

- ruby

INSTALL:

Create a config file multipush.yml two directories above where your repos are. You could make a different directory for each category, e.g. ‘ruby’, ‘rails’ or just put everything in one big directory.

- home <--- put multipush.yml here
  - ruby 
  \-- my_rails_project
  \-- my_ruby_project
  \-- another_git_project

For an example on how to set up the config file, check out the example file multipush.yml in the examples directory.

Make sure your source code hosting has all the right repos set up before you invoke multipush.

So if you have three repos named john, bear and super88, make sure your local and remote are mirrored:

LOCAL:

- john
- bear
- super88

REMOTE:

- john
- bear
- super88
