git-sync

name: git-sync description: "Scan local git repos for dirty trees, unpushed/unpulled commits, and stashes — keep machines in sync"

Check git repositories for sync issues: uncommitted changes, unpushed commits, commits behind remote, and stashes.

Usage

Run the check script using the git-sync tool path:

git-sync [path ...] [--no-fetch]

Arguments

paths — Repo paths or parent directories. Direct repo paths (with .git/) are checked as-is. Parent directories are scanned for subdirectories containing .git/. Default: ~/code (scans all repos).
--no-fetch — Skip git fetch (faster, but won't detect unpulled commits).

Config

The skill config provides the repo whitelist:

git-sync:
  repos:
    - ~/code/jstorrent
    - ~/code/yepanywhere
    - ~/code/dotfiles

Build the CLI args from config: pass each repos entry as a positional arg.

Example

git-sync ~/code/jstorrent ~/code/yepanywhere ~/code/dotfiles

Output

The script prints each repo that needs attention with its issues, then a summary line:

yepanywhere
  dirty: 2 modified 1 untracked
  unpushed: 3 commit(s) — latest: abc1234 Fix thing

dotfiles
  behind remote: 2 commit(s)

---
2 repo(s) need attention, 8 clean (10 total)

Exit code 0 = all clean, 1 = something needs attention.

Behavior by trigger mode

Interactive: Run the check, report results. If repos need attention, offer to fix them (pull, push, show diffs). Ask before taking action.
Cron/Channel: Run the check, report results only. Don't attempt fixes — just flag what needs attention.

Fixing issues

When in interactive mode and repos need attention:

Dirty tree: Show git diff --stat for the repo. Ask if user wants to commit, stash, or leave it.
Unpushed: Ask if user wants to push.
Behind remote: Ask if user wants to pull (warn if tree is also dirty — suggest stash first).
Stashes: Just mention them. Don't offer to pop unless asked.

Never force-push or reset without explicit user request.
