history

Project history and usage

multi-gitter is a Go command-line tool from the lindell/multi-gitter project for making the same scripted change across many Git repositories. Its README frames the core workflow as running any script or program inside each selected repository, then creating pull requests wherever the script changed files; it also supports manual merging or automatic merging after CI succeeds. The project fits the multi-repository maintenance niche that grew around microservices and internal shared libraries: dependency bumps, pull-request-template synchronization, search-and-replace edits, lint fixes, and mechanical refactors that would be tedious to apply repository by repository.

How it is used

In practice, users point multi-gitter at an organization, user, or explicit repository list, provide a branch name and commit message, and let their own Bash, Python, Node.js, Go, or other script do the actual edit. That keeps the tool narrower than a refactoring framework: it handles checkout, fan-out, commits, pull requests, reviewer/CI integration, and provider tokens, while users keep using ordinary scripts for the content change. Its package-manager niche is a developer-automation CLI distributed through Homebrew, MacPorts, and Scoop, useful for teams that chose many repositories instead of a monorepo.
