About:
Gws is a command-line tool that helps users manage multiple git repositories organized into named workspaces. It simplifies operations like cloning, updating, and checking the status of all repositories within a workspace simultaneously. This tool is ideal for developers juggling numerous projects, providing a unified interface to keep them all in sync.
Key Features:
  • Workspace management for grouping multiple git repositories
  • Bulk operations (status, pull, fetch) across all repos in a workspace
  • Simple command-line interface for easy integration
  • Configuration-driven workspace definitions
Use Cases:
  • Managing a microservices architecture with dozens of repositories
  • Syncing all personal and work projects with a single command
  • Quickly checking the status of all repos in a large organization
Alternatives:
  • mu-repo – Similar functionality for managing multiple repositories, but Gws focuses on a simpler workspace-centric approach.
  • myrepos – A more established tool with extensive configuration options, whereas Gws aims for a more modern and streamlined user experience.
