gitmulti is a lightweight CLI utility written in C++ that helps you easily manage multiple git remote push targets — for example, pushing to both a personal GitHub repo and a university-hosted Git server at the same time.
- Adds a secondary remote (e.g., university Git server) based on folder or project name.
- Supports automatic push to both GitHub and a secondary remote.
- Creates a default configuration on first launch.
- Opens config in Notepad (on Windows) or offers to edit in nano (on Linux).
- Smart detection of existing remotes to avoid duplication.
- Windows installer with optional MinGW auto-setup.
- Unix installation script included.
Run the provided PowerShell script to:
- Copy the binary to
Program Files\gitmulti\ - Add it to your system
PATH - (Optionally) install MinGW for compiling
Use the provided shell script:
sudo ./install-unix.shThis will install the binary to /usr/local/bin/gitmulti.
And optionally install clang llvm for you on macos on request
From within any Git-tracked project folder:
gitmultiYou can also manually specify a custom remote URL:
gitmulti git@custom.git.server:user/project.gitOn first launch, a config file is created at:
- Windows:
C:\Users\<You>\.gitmulti_config - Unix:
~/.gitmulti_config
Example:
remote_name=uni
branch=main
default_url=git@uni.example.edu:user/The actual project name is inferred from the current folder name.
