hosaypeng Git Status Checker
Check the commit, push, and branch health of all git repos under $HOME.
Instructions
- Run the repo discovery script to find all git repos, excluding noise directories:
bash ~/.claude/skills/git-status/scripts/find_repos.sh
If a specific repo path was provided as an argument, pass it through for the single-repo fast path:
bash ~/.claude/skills/git-status/scripts/find_repos.sh /path/to/repo
If find_repos.sh fails, fall back to find ~ -name .git -type d -maxdepth 5 excluding node_modules and .cache.
- For each repo found, check three things:
- Uncommitted changes:
git -C <repo> status -s 2>/dev/null - Unpushed commits:
git -C <repo> log @{u}.. --oneline 2>/dev/null - Stale branches:
bash ~/.claude/skills/git-status/scripts/stale_branches.sh <repo> 7
- Report a summary grouped into:
- Clean repos — nothing uncommitted, nothing unpushed, no stale branches (just list names)
- Repos with uncommitted changes — show file count and repo path
- Repos with unpushed commits — show commit count and repo path
- Repos with stale branches — show branch name, last commit date, and age in days. Format as a table:
| Repo | Branch | Last commit | Age |
| ------ | --------------- | ----------- | ---- |
| ~/Code/foo | feature/old | 2026-02-15 | 22d |
Skip main and master from the stale branch report — they may be inactive but are not candidates for cleanup.
Use ~ shorthand for $HOME in paths for readability. Keep output concise.
Troubleshooting
- Repo discovery takes very long: The script may be traversing large directories. Verify it excludes node_modules, .cache, and Library.
- "fatal: not a git repository" for some paths: Skip corrupted repos and note them in output.
- No upstream configured: Skip the unpushed check for those repos and note "no upstream configured."
- Stale branch script returns nothing: All branches have recent commits — this is normal. Only report the stale branches section if there are results.
