herme5 v1.0.0

HERME5

HERME5 (Handling & Evaluating Repository Maintenance, Enhancements & Synchronization) is a simple tool for managing multiple Git repositories in a workspace.

⚠️ This project is in its early stages. Expect frequent updates and improvements.

Features

• Check if any Git repositories in a given workspace have remote changes that need to be pulled.
• Optionally, automatically pull updates with --pull.
• Smart stashing with --stash (Only if necessary).

Installation

Once published on npm, you’ll be able to install it globally:

npm install -g herme5

Usage

herme5 <workspace-path> [--pull] [--stash]

Where:

• <workspace-path>: The folder containing multiple Git repositories.
• --pull: (Optional) If provided, repositories that need updates will be pulled.
• --stash: (Optional) If provided, local changes will be stashed before pulling and popped back after—but only if no untracked files or conflicts exist.

Example:

herme5 ~/projects --pull --stash

This will: 1. Check all repositories inside ~/projects. 2. Pull updates for outdated repositories. 3. Stash local changes if safe, otherwise it will skip stashing and log a warning.

Smart Stashing Behavior:

Will stash only if safe. If untracked files or conflicts exist, it skips stashing and logs:

⚠️ Skipping stash for <repo>: Untracked files or conflicts detected.

Roadmap

• Improve error handling
• Add more workspace-wide Git operations
• Interactive mode for easier control
