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.
