## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

mani is a Go command-line tool for managing many repositories from one YAML inventory. It combines project metadata, cloning and synchronization, task definitions, filtering, and command execution across groups of repositories.

### Projektgeschichte

The public repository was created in October 2019. The project's own background document says it was written because the author wanted a central place for many repositories, with names, URLs, descriptions, one-command cloning, ad-hoc or named commands across selected repositories, and an overview of repositories and command output.

mani's design centers on a user-editable YAML file instead of treating the config as an opaque state file. The documentation highlights projects, tasks, specs, targets, themes, and environment variables as the core concepts in `mani.yaml`.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

The README documents distribution through project releases, curl install, Homebrew, MacPorts, Arch AUR, Nix, Go install, and source builds. That package-manager spread reflects a niche but real audience among developers who maintain many Git repositories.

### Wie es verwendet wird

Typical use starts with `mani init` in a directory containing Git repositories, which generates a `mani.yaml` inventory. Users then run commands such as listing projects or executing `git status` across all projects, optionally in parallel and with tabular output.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

mani sits in the same tooling family as `myrepos`, `repo`, `vcstool`, `meta`, and other multi-repository helpers, but packages the workflow as a single Go binary with shell completion and a YAML-first configuration model.

### Zeitleiste

- 2019: Public GitHub repository created.
- 2020-2021: README copyright years indicate early MIT-licensed public development.
- 2026: v0.32.1 release published on GitHub.

### Related projects

- The official project background names gita, gr, meta, mu-repo, myrepos, repo, and vcstool as similar software.
- The README points to the author's `sake` project as a related tool for managing servers.
