.SH "EXAMPLES"
.nf
Register a workspace so that git bulk knows about it using an absolute path:
$ git bulk \-\-addworkspace personal ~/workspaces/personal
Or register a workspace using an environment variable pointing to an absolute path:
$ git bulk \-\-addworkspace personal '$PERSONAL_WORKSPACE'
Use option \-\-from in order to directly clone a repository or multiple repositories
$ git bulk \-\-addworkspace personal ~/workspaces/personal \-\-from https://github\.com/tj/git\-extras\.git
$ git bulk \-\-addworkspace personal ~/workspaces/personal \-\-from ~/repositories\.txt
repositories\.txt

https://host\-of\-git/repo\-1\.git
https://host\-of\-git/repo\-2\.git
https://host\-of\-git/repo\-3\.git
Register the current directory as a workspace to git bulk:
$ git bulk \-\-addcurrent personal
List all registered workspaces:
$ git bulk \-\-listall
Run a git command on the repositories of the current workspace:
$ git bulk fetch
Run a git command on the specified workspace and its repositories:
$ git bulk \-w personal fetch
Run a git command but ask the user for confirmation on every execution (guarded mode):
$ git bulk \-g fetch
Remove a registered workspace:
