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. ### Sources - - - ## Security Notes No matching local secret-handling manifest was found for multi-gitter.
