Query Project git Status

[hendrenja]

In growing projects, I am constantly forgetting which project folders have been synced with their remote git branches. I will be writing a bake tool/plugin that queries each project's bake status. The plugin shall support the following

• Ignore non-git projects
• Report non-tracked changes
• Report non-staged changes
• Report commits behind origin/master (needs fetch)
  Considerations: git fetch origin is required, which requires remote query (SLOW)
• Specify commits ahead of origin/master (non-pushed)

Bash Example

#!/bin/bash

i=0
for file in */ ; do
    cd ${file}
    if [ -d .git ]; then
        git fetch origin
        if output=$(git status --porcelain) && [ -z "$output" ]; then
            # echo "$file is clean";
            # if output=$(git status -uno) && [ -z "$output" ]; then
            # fi
            ahead=$(git rev-list --right-only --count origin/master...master)
            behind=$(git rev-list --left-only --count origin/master...master)
            if [ ${ahead} -ne "0" ]; then
                echo "$file | Changes AHEAD of origin/master"
                i=$((i+1))
            fi
            if [ ${behind} -ne "0" ]; then
                echo "$file | Changes BEHIND origin/master"
                i=$((i+1))
            fi
            cd ..
        else
            echo "$file | Untracked Files ";
            i=$((i+1))
            cd ..
        fi
    else
        # echo "Skip $file"
        cd ..
    fi
done

echo "[$i] git repos need attention"
