NAME
       git-for-each-repo - Run a Git command on a list of repositories

SYNOPSIS
       git for-each-repo --config=<config> [--] <arguments>


DESCRIPTION
       Run a Git command on a list of repositories. The arguments after the
       known options or -- indicator are used as the arguments for the Git
       subprocess.

       THIS COMMAND IS EXPERIMENTAL. THE BEHAVIOR MAY CHANGE.

       For example, we could run maintenance on each of a list of repositories
       stored in a maintenance.repo config variable using

	   git for-each-repo --config=maintenance.repo maintenance run


       This will run git -C <repo> maintenance run for each value <repo> in
       the multi-valued config variable maintenance.repo.

OPTIONS
       --config=<config>
	   Use the given config variable as a multi-valued list storing
	   absolute path names. Iterate on that list of paths to run the given
	   arguments.

	   These config values are loaded from system, global, and local Git
	   config, as available. If git for-each-repo is run in a directory
	   that is not a Git repository, then only the system and global
	   config is used.

       --keep-going
	   Continue with the remaining repositories if the command failed on a
	   repository. The exit code will still indicate that the overall
	   operation was not successful.

	   Note that the exact exit code of the failing command is not passed
	   through as the exit code of the for-each-repo command: If the
	   command failed in any of the specified repositories, the overall
	   exit code will be 1.

SUBPROCESS BEHAVIOR
       If any git -C <repo> <arguments> subprocess returns a non-zero exit
       code, then the git for-each-repo process returns that exit code without
       running more subprocesses.

       Each git -C <repo> <arguments> subprocess inherits the standard file
       descriptors stdin, stdout, and stderr.
