I work across many local git repositories (microservices, OSS projects, config repos, experiments), and I often lose track of which ones are dirty, ahead/behind, or where I last made changes. Checking each repo with git status became a daily time sink.

So I built git-scope — a small TUI that shows the state of all your git repos in one terminal screen.

What it does

Recursively finds git repos under a directory

Shows clean/dirty/ahead/behind status at a glance

Fuzzy search + quick filtering

Press Enter to jump straight into a repo (shell or editor)

Uses lightweight git metadata to avoid running git status everywhere

~10ms startup on my machine thanks to caching

Fully local, no telemetry
