Simple utitlity written in Python for the local repositories. In a Time of SaaS, Isac and microservices, it can happen that you need many small repositories at your local Machine for Development, so it didn`t make fun to pull so many repositories.

Features

• sort gitlab grops to fs folder
• append a prefix to the repos
