GitDaily 0.4

This is a bash shell script that allows you to easily see the status of all of your Git repositories. If you're like me, and you keep every single project in a different repository, it can be very useful to see on which repositories you need to work.

$ gitdaily

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
  GitDaily
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
  dirtyrepo is not clean
    Changes not staged for commit:
      modified:   .bashrc
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
  66% of 3 repos clean
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

$ gitdaily --all --compact

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
  GitDaily
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
  dotfiles is clean
  gitdaily is clean
  dirtyrepo 1 file changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
  66% of 3 repos clean
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Configuration

Normally, you'd have a configuration file sitting at ~/.config/gitdaily_paths. This file should contain the paths to the repositories that you want to track. An example:

$HOME/repos/*
$HOME/stuff

This will cause GitDaily to track ~/stuff and any subdirectory of ~/repos that is a Git repository.

Usage

Run according to config file:

$ gitdaily

When you're in a Git repository and you want to see its status (kind of the same as running git status):

$ gitdaily -l
$ gitdaily --local

When you're in a folder and you want to see the statuses of its subdirectories (will skip non-Git folders):

$ gitdaily -s
$ gitdaily --subdir

When you just want a compact list of which repositories aren't clean:

$ gitdaily -c
$ gitdaily --compact

When you want to know where the repository resides:

$ gitdaily -p
$ gitdaily --parent

When you want to see the help:

$ gitdaily -h
$ gitdaily --help

When you need to check the version of gitdaily:

$ gitdaily -v
$ gitdaily --version

Add a custom message to the newspaper, it will display just above the footer:

$ gitdaily "Hello world"
$ gitdaily "$(fortune)"

The flags -l and -s are mutually exclusive. -c can be used together with -l or -s.
