NAME
gcli forks — Manage repository forks in git forges
SYNOPSIS
gcli [-n n] [-y] [-s] [-o owner -r repo] actions... gcli create [-o owner -r repo] -i target-owner
DESCRIPTION
Use gcli to manage forks of other repositories in various git(1) forges such as GitHub, GitLab and Gitea.
OPTIONS
-o, --owner owner Operate on the repository of the given owner. This option can only be used in combination with -r. -r, --repo repo Operate on the given repository. This option can only be used in combination with -o. -y, --yes Do not ask for confirmation. Assume yes. -s, --sorted Reverse the output such that most recent items appear at the bottom. -i, --into target-owner When forking a repository, this is the organization or user the repository is forked into. -n, --count n Fetch at least n forks. Setting n to -1 will fetch all forks. Default: 30. Note that on repositories with many forks fetching all forks can take a considerable amount of time and may result in rate limiting by the respective API.
ACTIONS
actions... may be one or more of the following: delete Delete the fork. You will be asked for confirmation unless you set -y. The following flags can be specified: -r, --repo See OPTIONS -o, --owner See OPTIONS -y, --yes Do not ask for confirmation before deleting the fork. See OPTIONS.
EXAMPLES
Clone vim/vim and fork it into your account: $ git clone git@github.com:vim/vim $ cd vim $ gcli forks create --into <myaccount> This will ask you if you want to add a remote to your fork. In case you accept the offer, the origin remote will be renamed to upstream and a new origin will be pointed at your newly created fork. You may also want to setup a .gcli file at the same time: $ printf -- "pr.upstream=vim/vim\npr.base=trunk\n" >> .gcli Delete your fork of the current repository without confirmation: $ gcli forks -y delete
