This repo contains a handy Ruby script and CSV source for cloning or updating git repositories into your current directory. The clone removes the .git/ directory from each cloned repo in order to avoid submodules. It is currently used for GDI Chicago courses.
To use, run the update.rb script from the directory in which you would like to contain the source repositories. For example, my current directory is src/project. I have a couple of the courses listed in my courses.csv file, but I have added some and need to update the others. Let's say update.rb lives in src/course-updater. To run my script, I'll do the following from the command line:
ruby ../course-updater/update.rb
To add to the list of repos to be pulled down, add the HTTPS or SSH url for the desired repo to the courses.csv file. The next time you run the script, this repo will be available!
