Multi Repo Git

中文文档

A very simple Git command line tool, to manage multiple git repositories at once.

Why you need it?

If you manage projects using multi-repo style，or worked in a micro service environment, you have most likely been asked to worked with dozen of projects.

This tool amis to replace this:

cd ./project1
git pull
cd ./project2
git pull
cd ./project3
git pull

by that:

mrgx git pull

Getting started

Installing

npm install mrgx -g will install a mrgx command on your system.

Usage

You can manage multiple projects across folders via configuration files. Or you can manage multiple projects in the same folder via the locals command.

Configuration

mrgx will try to read its configuration file from the current command execution path to the ancestor root path.

The configuration file must be named .mrgx.config.json and be in json format. Its best to user it in the root directory,such as /Users/liufang/.mrgx.config.json

{
  "projects": [
    {
      "path": "/Users/liufang/Neteasework/front-study"
    },
    {
      "path": "/Users/liufang/Neteasework/front-study-web"
    },
    {
      "path": "/Users/liufang/Neteasework/front-study-course"
    },
    {
      "path": "/Users/liufang/Neteasework/front-study-order"
    },
    {
      "path": "/Users/liufang/Neteasework/front-yooc"
    },
    {
      "path": "/Users/liufang/Neteasework/edu-front-2.0"
    },
    {
      "path": "/Users/liufang/Neteasework/front-study-wap"
    }
  ]
}

Working with mrgx

When you're done configuring, you can use it directly on any path, just like git command itself.

or

Config Params

cmd

Now, you can do any thing you want (from v1.7.0) by use mrgx cmd *** to the content of your config.

mrgx cmd pwd

mrgx cmd npm install

locals

If you don't want to configure complex configuration files (though not complicated), but instead perform a unified operation on all the projects in a folder, you can use the locals command:mrgx locals git status, mrgx locals ls, and so on.

git

When using git, it is the same as using the native git command: mrgx git push, mrgx git merge master, and so on.

config

Simplify some operations on the path with the config command, such as mrgx config ls, mrgx config addp ,mrgx config rmp,mrgx config ui, read here for more details.

There are some more flexible and simple configuration methods, but need to be based on the backup configuration. read here for more details.

symlink

Manage symbolic links with the symlink command, so that you can reach the project path more efficiently, all based on sym-lnk. read here for more details.

package

Manage Project's dependencies with the package command. Currently only supports bower, you can set package as 'bower' in config file to using it. read here for more details.

Options

-l, --local

Open the current directory multi-repo mode, the set of items to operate is no longer taken from the configuration file, but all the folders in the current directory.

mrgx -l git status

-q, --quiet

By default, an error will interrupt the operation**. You can ignore error by -q or --quiet. Such as:

mrgx locals -q lsand mrgx -q git status

-e, --exclude

exclude some file, can only be used in mrgx locals.

Execute under the files in the current folder except Manhattan, growth, index.js, and market thought git pull.

mrgx -e Manhattan,growth,index.js,market locals git pull

Plugin System

Mrgx supports the extension of sub-commands through the plugin system starting from 1.10, For specific operations and documentation, please see Plugin System

npm i mrgx -g

Then install the plugin which is starting with mrgx-plugin- such as mrgx-plugin-exec:

npm i mrgx-plugin-exec -g

Finally, you can execute the sub-commands and related logic provided by the plugin.

Plugin list
