This is a small shell script I use to batch update all of my git repositories that are children of a particular folder on my filesystem.
First create a single common folder to checkout all of your projects. We’ll use vc.
mkdir ~/vc; cd ~/vc
Then place the following file inside the folder.
This file contains bidirectional Unicode text that may be interpreted or compiled differently than what appears below. To review, open the file in an editor that reveals hidden Unicode characters.

| #!/bin/bash | |
| DIR="$( cd "$( dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" )" && pwd )" | |
| for FOLDER in $DIR/*/; do cd $FOLDER; echo "Updating " $FOLDER; git pull; cd $DIR; done | |
| echo 'Done!' |
Now checkout your repositories into subfolder.
git clone https://github.com/stevenkword/WP-Present.git wp-present
You should now end up with a folder ~/vc/wp-present/ and we can test our update script.
sh ~/vc/update-git.sh
The script should traverse all of the subfolders and issue git pull commands in each.
