Tool for vendoring repositories.
Currently supports git and mercurial.
Usage: vfu [-d DIR] -s [-a PATH=REPO]* CONFIG # save
vfu [-d DIR] -r CONFIG # restore
Default for DIR is the current working directory.
vfu -s searches through DIR looking for repositories, making a record of all that it finds, and writes it to CONFIG.
Zero or more additional repositories that exist outside of subdirectories of DIR may be vendored using the -a PATH=REPO flag. PATH is the location within DIR that it will be put on a restore, and REPO is the absolute path of the repository root.
vfu -r looks at CONFIG, and clones all the recorded repositories into DIR.
vfu prints the local directories of the repositories it processes. This printing makes it easy to update a .gitignore or .hgignore file.
$ vfu -s >> .gitignore
