GitHub Repository Cloner

The GitHub Repository Cloner is a bash script that allows you to clone or update multiple GitHub repositories from a user or a list of URLs. The script uses the GitHub API and your personal access token to obtain the list of repositories and clone/update them.

Installation

To use this script, you will need:

• A GitHub account with API access
• A personal access token (PAT) with repo scope. You can create a PAT by following these instructions.

Usage

Cloning repositories for a user To clone all the repositories for a GitHub user, simply run the script with the username as the only argument:

$ ./github-repo-cloner.sh -u <GitHub username> -t <GitHub API token>

The script will clone or update all repositories owned by the specified GitHub user, as well as any repositories specified in a "repos.txt" file in the current directory.

Notes

• The script will create a new directory called "repos" in the current directory to store the cloned repositories.
• If a repository has already been cloned, the script will perform a "git pull" to update it instead of cloning it again.
• The script uses the GitHub API to get the list of repositories owned by the user, so it may be subject to rate limiting if the user has a large number of repositories. To avoid this, you can provide a list of repositories in the "repos.txt" file.
