mud

mud is a multi-directory git runner which allows you to run git commands in a multiple repositories. It has multiple powerful tools filtering tools and support of aliasing. This tool is not limited to git commands only, you can run any commands as you wish, but this tool was primarily designed to be used with git, so each referenced directory should have .git.

Installing

Download (install.sh)[install.sh] script.
Run install.sh to install.

Getting started

Run mud config to start interactive wizard which help you to set the preferable settings. Check settings section for more. At the end, .mudsettings file will appear at your home directory that you can alter in the future.
Locate to your preferable directory with repositories.
Run mud init command to create .mudconfig file. This file is important to keep references to repositories. All repositories in current dictionary would be included to .mudconfig.
Optional: Run mud --set-global to make current configuration default and reachable from any directory.

All entries are stored in .mudconfig in XML format. After making your first entry, you can open .mudconfig in a text editor and modify it according to your needs.

Global .mudconfig

mud --set-global - sets current .mudconfig as a global configuration, so it would be used as a fallback configuration to run from any directory.

Using

Commands

mud <FILTER> <COMMAND> will execute bash command across all repositories. To filter repositories check filtering section.

mud info - displays branch divergence and working directory changes.
mud status - displays working directory changes.
mud log - displays latest commit message, it's time and it's author.
mud labels - displays mud labels across repositories.
mud branch - displays all branches in repositories.
mud tags - displays git tags in repositories.

Arguments

-l=<label> or --label=<label> - filters out repositories by mud labels.
-b=<branch> or --branch=<branch> - filters out repositories by current branch name.
-m or --modified - filters out modified repositories.
-d or --diverged - filters repositories with diverged branches.
-t or --table - toggles default table view setting for run.

Example:
mud -b=master -d git pull
# Filters out all repos with master branch and diverged branches and then runs pull command.

Settings

Settings are stored in your home directory in .mudsettings file.

config_path = /home/user/path/.mudconfig - this is set up by mud --set-global command.
nerd_fonts = 0/1 - toggles whenever nerd font icons should be used in output.
auto_fetch = 0/1 - when enabled, mud status and mud log do fetch for all repos when invoked.
run_async = 0/1 - enabled to run commands asynchronously.
run_table = 0/1 - enable to see asynchronous commands in a table view. Requires run_async.
simplify_branches = 0/1 - simplifies branch name in the branch view.

Aliases

You can create your own aliases for commands. To create your own aliases, edit .mudsettings file, [alias] section. .mudsettings has the following aliases by default:

[alias]
to = git checkout
fetch = git fetch
pull = git pull
push = git push

Labeling

You can modify your .mudconfig file by using following commands:

Adding and labeling repositories

mud add <label> <path> - adds path with an optional label.
mud add <path> - adds path without a label.

Removing labels and repositories

mud remove <label> - removes label from all directories.
mud remove <path> - removes directory with a specified path.
mud remove <label> <path> - removes label from a directory.
