Bash script for updating the remote URL for multiple repos

update-remote-url.sh

#!/bin/bash

# #############################################################################
# If you typically keep your cloned repos in a single directory and happen
# to move the location of your remote, here is a script for quickly updating
# the remote url for all of the cloned repos in a given directory.
#
# Run from the same directory in which all of the repos reside as follows:
#
# /update-remote-url.sh "dir1 dir2 dir3" "[email protected]:/path/to/parent/dir"
#
# Running as follows will update the remote for "dir1" to
#
#  [email protected]:/path/to/parent/dir/dir1.git
#
# #############################################################################
# CONFIGS
#
# If your remote has a different name simply export this env var before
# running this script setting it to a different string.
#
export REMOTE_NAME=${REMOTE_NAME:-origin}
