Perform batch "pull -u" on multiple Mercurial repositories from the parent directory

hg_batch_pull.sh

#!/bin/bash

# This script finds all the mercurial repositories in the current directory
# and does a "hg pull -u" to get the latest changes from all the repositories.
#
# Make sure you know what you're doing before running this ;-)

confirm_prompt() {
   read -p "Are you sure you want to 'hg pull -u' every repository? " -n 1
   echo
   if [[ ! $REPLY =~ ^[Yy]$ ]]; then
      exit 1
   fi
}

confirm_prompt

targetDir=`pwd`
dirObjs=`ls $targetDir`

# check the current directory for mercurial repositories
for d in $dirObjs
do
  if [ -d $d ] && [ -f "$d/.hg/hgrc" ]; then
    echo "--------"
    echo "Updating mercurial repository in $d"
    cd $d
    hg pull -u
    cd ..
  fi
done

Cool, this should come in handy!

This is a handy script, just one suggestion though, if you can add hg update and merge for +1 heads, that will be great.

Here is a windows version for that.
