git-proj 0.6.4

Discover, track, and sync Git repos across GitHub, GitLab, and Gitea

git-proj

Discover, track, and sync Git repos across GitHub, GitLab, and Gitea from one CLI.

Why

If you juggle between different projects and work across multiple Git foundries — GitHub, a company GitLab, a self-hosted Gitea — you may lose track of what lives where and what you've been working on recently.

git-proj gives you one place to discover repos via APIs, pick which ones to track, and keep them synced locally.

Install

Requires Python 3.11+ and uv.

uv tool install git-proj

Or from source:

git clone https://github.com/sjev/git-projects.git
cd git-projects
uv sync --frozen

The CLI command is gpr.

Quick start

# Create config with default foundries
gpr config init

# Edit ~/.local/share/git-projects/config.yaml to add your API tokens

# Fetch all repos from configured foundries
gpr fetch

# Browse what's available (tracked projects are highlighted with their path)
gpr list
gpr list myproject    # filter by name

# Track a repo by name (resolved from index) or URL
gpr track my-repo
gpr track [e-mail]:user/repo.git

# Clone missing repos, pull & push existing ones
gpr sync

# Stop tracking
gpr untrack my-repo

Commands

Command	Description
config init	Create default config file
config show	Show config path and contents
fetch [foundry]	Fetch repos from foundry APIs, save to local index
list [query]	Browse indexed repos (tracked projects highlighted with path)
track <name|url> [--path]	Add a project to tracking
untrack <name>	Remove a project from tracking
sync [--workers N]	Clone missing repos, pull & push existing tracked repos
info	Show version, paths, and repo counts

Configuration

Config lives at $XDG_DATA_HOME/git-projects/ (typically ~/.local/share/git-projects/):

config.yaml      # foundries, clone_root, credentials — never share this
projects.json    # tracked projects (portable, no secrets)
index.json       # cached repo metadata from last fetch

Example config.yaml:

clone_root: ~/projects
clone_url_format: ssh    # or "https"
foundries:
  - name: github
    type: github
    token: ghp_...
  - name: my-gitea
    type: gitea
    url: https://gitea.example.com
    token: ""

Multi-machine setup

projects.json is portable (relative paths, no secrets). Copy it between machines:

scp ~/.local/share/git-projects/projects.json other-machine:~/.local/share/git-projects/
gpr sync

Development

uv sync --group dev
uv run invoke lint      # ruff check + ruff format --check + mypy
uv run invoke test      # pytest with coverage
uv run invoke format    # ruff format

Versioning

Bump the version with bump-my-version:

uv run invoke bump           # patch: 0.1.0 → 0.1.1
uv run invoke bump --part minor  # minor: 0.1.0 → 0.2.0
uv run invoke bump --part major  # major: 0.1.0 → 1.0.0

Each bump updates pyproject.toml, creates a git commit, and tags the release.
