About:
ghorg is a command-line tool written in Go that automates the cloning of all repositories from a specified GitHub organization or user account into a single local directory. It streamlines the process of backing up, auditing, or setting up a local copy of an entire codebase. Its main value is saving significant time for developers and administrators who need to work with or analyze multiple repositories at once.
|
Key Features:
- Bulk cloning of all repos from a GitHub org or user
- Configurable output directory and clone method (SSH/HTTPS)
- Ability to skip archived, forked, or private repositories
- Supports GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket
- Colorized output and progress indicators for better UX
|
Use Cases:
- Creating a local backup of all repositories in a GitHub organization
- Onboarding developers by quickly cloning all relevant team repos to their machine
- Performing security audits or code analysis across an entire org's codebase
|
Alternatives:
-
ghorg
– This is the tool itself, listed for context.
-
manual git clone
– Extremely time-consuming and manual compared to ghorg's automation.
-
git-tool
– A broader multi-service Git client, whereas ghorg is specialized for bulk cloning.
