sluuz

Fast, colorized CLI for searching git history and managing many git repos at once.

sluuz walks every repository under a directory and works across all branches in parallel — so you can hunt a string through history, audit for leaked secrets, or check the state of 30 repos with a single command.

Install

cargo install sluuz

Update to the latest version:

cargo install sluuz --force

Commands

search — find where a string entered or left history

Uses git's pickaxe (git log -S) across all branches, then shows the matching commit, the file(s) the change touched, and the branches that contain it. Because it's pickaxe-based, it also finds matches inside binary/encrypted blobs.

sluuz search "api_key"             # this repo, all branches
sluuz search -r "password"         # recurse into every repo under the current dir
sluuz search -r -l 50 "secret"     # show up to 50 commits per repo (default 20)

Matching is case-sensitive (pickaxe is precise by nature).

scan — audit repos for leaked secrets

Sweeps every commit on every branch for a list of sensitive terms (case-insensitive) and reports each hit with its commit, branch, and file. Catches secrets committed in binary/encrypted files too.

sluuz scan                              # scan repos under the current dir
sluuz scan /path/to/projects            # scan a specific path
sluuz scan -t "aws,bearer,token"        # custom terms (default: password,secret,token,…)
sluuz scan -d 5                         # search up to 5 directory levels deep

status — working-tree state across all repos

A dashboard of every repo under a path: current branch, uncommitted files, and how far ahead/behind its upstream it is.

sluuz status                # all repos under the current dir
sluuz status --dirty        # only repos needing attention

Legend: ✚ uncommitted · ↑ unpushed commits · ↓ unpulled commits

fetch — fetch (and optionally fast-forward) every repo

Fetches and prunes all repos in parallel. With --pull it additionally runs git pull --ff-only, which fast-forwards safely and refuses rather than merging when it can't — so it never creates merge commits or conflicts.

sluuz fetch                 # fetch + prune all repos
sluuz fetch --pull          # also fast-forward the current branch where safe

branches — find merged, deletable branches

Lists local branches already merged into your current branch (safe to delete), with how long since each was last touched and a ready-to-paste delete command.

sluuz branches              # repos with cleanup to do
sluuz branches --all        # include repos with nothing to clean up

Common options

Most commands accept:

• a path argument (defaults to .)
• -d, --depth <N> — how many directory levels deep to look for repos (default 3)
