Managing git checkouts...
I'm not much of developer, but I do like too use git to sometimes get the latest revisions of certain software i.e. bug fixes.
I usually manually git clone the repository in my ~/builds folder. Then I browse the source and then configure and install. Is there a git management tool that will help me see each cloned git repository in my builds directory..? And if so, allow me to checkout, reset & or update the repositories when there are newer revisions available? I thought about just writing a cron script that updates all of my git repositories manually, but a gui would be nice. I use git for: git-sources, xen-sources, geany, and many other programs I use, and track. I'd like having a dedicated git folder to manage all my git-clones, i.e. builds. I am very new with git and I am having a hard time wrapping my mind on how to use revision control, whenever a new update is released with bug fixes and staying current. I'm new to Linux and my programming skills are novice at best, and I dont plan on adding or contributing any source, and or patches as of yet, just want to manage my git-clones to keep current. I have tried gitg, and the app freezes, and I dont know if this tool can manage multiple git repositories at once like I want. Any suggestions. or advice .. or clarification? |

Thx for the reply ... I figured that... I was looking for something similar to RapidSVN. Where I can manage all my local SVN repositories, and then checkout any updates, and monitor any revisions.
A cron'd script is the way to go with git... thx |
