gh-orgsync

A GitHub (gh) CLI extension to sync all repos from a GitHub organization. Leverages Go concurrency to speed things up. The extension will get a list of repos in the org and a list of the repos in the target local path and create an action plan.

• Repos that do not exist locally will be cloned
• Repos that exist locally and in the org will be updated (git fetch)
• Repos that exist locally but not in the org will not be touched, but can be reported
