# Python Multigit
A Python version of the [multigit Bash script](https://github.com/jmnavarrol/simplest-git-subrepos).
While the multigit Bash script at [simplest-git-subrepos](https://github.com/jmnavarrol/simplest-git-subrepos) was created for illustration purposes, this one is intended to be a full-fledged implementation.
The general idea is to offer a simple way of managing “workspaces” integrating multiple git repos starting from a top one, and without the need of difficult “arcanes” like git submodules, git-subtree, etc.: you only need to declare your intended layout in a YAML file, and let this script do its job. See the [simplest-git-subrepos README](https://github.com/jmnavarrol/simplest-git-subrepos) for a long-wired explanation.
## usage multigit expects a YAML file named subrepos on the root directory of the current repo (see [example](./subrepos)).
- For each defined subrepo, it will clone/checkout it to the defined relative path. Optionally, it will checkout the given gitref, provided the repo’s local sandbox is “clean” (i.e. no pending modifications).
NOTE: pay attention to the fact that if the gitref you record is a specific commit, the related sandbox will be in disconnected state.
multigit will also recursively look for new subrepos files on the repositories it manages.
You should make sure your [.gitignore file](./.gitignore) ignores all your subrepos.
This way you just need to manage your repos with git in the standard way, just as if they were individually checked out in isolation.
## development For development purposes, you should create a Python 3 virtualenv using [the companion requirements file](./requirements.txt), i.e. (I’m using [virtualenvwrapper](https://virtualenvwrapper.readthedocs.io) here): mkvirtualenv –python=$(which python3) -r requirements.txt python-multigit.
Then, you can run this code by means of [the helper cmd script](./python-multigit-cmd.py), i.e.: ./python-multigit-cmd.py.
