gityup-go

Given a folder that contains git projects:

~/code
├── project1
├── project2
├── etc

loop through them and run git smart-pull ¹ and git remote update origin --prune.

Reason

A great way to start learning programming languages is to develop small programs, especially solving problems for yourself.

I decided to write a tool to sync projects I work on and ones I have cloned down just for reference.

Keeping them up-to-date helps me not branch from an old commit ref as well as keeping reference projects current.

Development

make
make build

Linting

The linting functionality comes from installing these tools:

• goimports

go install golang.org/x/tools/cmd/goimports@latest

• staticcheck

go install honnef.co/go/tools/cmd/staticcheck@latest

• golangci-lint

https://golangci-lint.run/welcome/install/

Then you can run the lint make target:

make lint

Build for other platforms

export GOOS=linux
export GOARCH=amd64
make build

Security

There's a nice blog post here which I've tried to implement here.

Many of the recommended tools are included in the golangci-lint call in the Linting step.

Vulnerabilities check

The makefile has targets for running security scans.

• govulncheck

go install golang.org/x/vuln/cmd/govulncheck@latest

Then you can run the vuln make target:

make vuln
