gh-org-repo-sync

GitHub CLI extension to clone all repositories in an Organization, with the ability to filter via search queries. If a local clone already exists, it fetches all remotes and pulls changes from the default branch.

Installation

• Install the gh CLI. See https://github.com/cli/cli#installation for further details.
• If not done already, also install Git.
• To be able to clone private repos you have access to inside the Organization, authenticate with your GitHub account by running gh auth login. Alternatively, the CLI will respect the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable.
• Install the extension:

gh extension install rm3l/gh-org-repo-sync

❯ gh org-repo-sync -h

Usage: gh org-repo-sync <organization> [options]
