🚀 Usage

Simply run it in any directory containing your projects:

git-scope

Commands

git-scope              # Launch TUI dashboard
git-scope init         # Create config file interactively
git-scope scan         # Scan and print repos (JSON)
git-scope scan-all     # Full system scan from home directory
git-scope issue        # Open GitHub issues page in browser
git-scope -h           # Show help

By default, it recursively scans the current directory. You can configure permanent root paths later.


🆚 git-scope vs. lazygit

  • git-scope is for your workspace (bird's-eye view).
  • lazygit is for a specific repository (deep dive).
Feature git-scope lazygit
Scope All repos at once One repo at a time
Primary Goal Find what needs attention Stage/Commit/Diff
Fuzzy Search Find repo by name/path
Integration Press Enter to open editor Press Enter to stage files
Performance ~10ms startup (cached) Slower on large monorepos

✨ Features

  • 📁 Workspace Switch — Switch root directories without quitting (w). Supports ~, relative paths, and symlinks.
  • 🔍 Fuzzy Search — Find any repo by name, path, or branch (/).
  • 🛡️ Dirty Filter — Instantly show only repos with uncommitted changes (f).
  • 📄 Pagination — Navigate large repo lists with page-by-page browsing ([ / ]). Shows 15 repos per page with a dynamic page indicator.
  • 🚀 Editor Jump — Open the selected repo in VSCode, Neovim, Vim, or Helix (Enter).
  • ⚡ Blazing Fast — JSON caching ensures ~10ms launch time even with 50+ repos.
  • 📊 Dashboard Stats — See branch name, staged/unstaged counts, and last commit time.
  • 🌿 Contribution Graph — GitHub-style local heatmap for your activity (g).
  • 💾 Disk Usage — Visualize .git vs node_modules size (d).
  • ⏰ Timeline — View recent activity across all projects (t).
  • 🔗 Symlink Support — Symlinked directories resolve transparently (great for Codespaces/devcontainers).

⚙️ Configuration

Edit workspace location and code editor of your choice in ~/.config/git-scope/config.yml:

# ~/.config/git-scope/config.yml
roots:

  - dist

editor: code # options: code,nvim,lazygit,vim,cursor

💡 Why I Built This

I work across dozens of small repositories—microservices, dotfiles, and side projects. I kept forgetting which repos had uncommitted changes or unpushed commits.

My mornings used to look like this:

cd repo-1 && git status
cd ../repo-2 && git status
# ... repeat for 20 repos

I built git-scope to solve the "Multi-Repo Blindness" problem. It gives me a single screen to see what is dirty, what is ahead/behind, and where I left off yesterday.


🗺️ Roadmap

  • In-app workspace switching with Tab completion
  • Symlink resolution for devcontainers/Codespaces
  • Background file watcher (real-time updates)
  • Quick actions (bulk pull/fetch)
  • Repo grouping (Service / Team / Stack)
  • Custom team dashboards
