Envars needed

• Define the envar WORKING_DIR. This must be the folder where you have all the repositories you want to manage.

export WORKING_DIR=$(pwd)

• Define GIT_ACCESS_USER and GIT_ACCESS_TOKEN with your Github Username and Token

Git integration

You can run local git commands alongside multiple repositories that are inside the $WORKING_DIR:

• clone (Repos grouped in a Github Org).
• checkout
• add all new content
• create new branch locally
• pull
• commit
• reset to HEAD
• rebase
• push
• fetch
• status

Github integration

You can run following actions in github:

• Create repositories.

You need to provide a json file with info of the repos you want to create. Check this json file with the example of the file. Place the file in your $WORKING_DIR

cp examples/json-files/new_repos.json $WORKING_DIR

After creating the repositories a file repos_info.json will be created. don't erase it

• Create/update/merge pull requests

You need to provide a json file with info of the PRs you want to create. Check this json file with the example of the file. Place the file in your $WORKING_DIR

cp examples/json-files/new_prs.json $WORKING_DIR

After creating the repositories a file pr_info.json will be created. don't erase it

If you want to update you can only update these fields: title, body, state, base, maintainer_can_modify.
