Handy script to setup git local config for several git projects

git-config-setup.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash

set -e

prompt_user() {
  read -p "$1 [hit <enter> to abort]: " user_input
  if [[ -z "$user_input" ]]; then
    echo "Aborting git local config setup."
    exit 1
  fi
  echo $user_input
}

CODE_DIR=$(prompt_user "Type the the root dir (full path) of your projects (Example: $HOME/workspace/)?")
GIT_USER_NAME=$(prompt_user "Type your full name")
GIT_USER_EMAIL=$(prompt_user "Type your email")

CURR_DIR=$(pwd)

cd $CODE_DIR
for entry in $(ls -lrt -d -1 $PWD/*/); do
  if [[ -d $entry/.git/ ]]; then
    cd $entry
    echo "Setting git config for $(pwd)"
    git config --local user.name "$GIT_USER_NAME"
    git config --local user.email $GIT_USER_EMAIL
  fi
done
cd $CURR_DIR
