# clone-all(1)
Clones every repository or gist from a Github user, optionally to a specified directory.
clone-all(1) is perfect to help you set up a new computer, back up your Github account, or if you just want to grab all of a users public repositories. It also goes great with an [OS X setup script][osxdefaults] or [dotfiles setup][dotfiles].
## Requirements
* [Git][git] and [Github account][github]
* [Homebrew][homebrew] (for package installation of the following)
* [jq][jq] (for JSON to bash manipulation)
* [roundup][roundup] (for testing)
## How to install
clone-all(1) is a [shell script][bin], so installation is simple. [Download][download], extract and copy the script in the `bin` directory over to the `/usr/local/bin` directory and make sure it's in your `$PATH`. The man page, `man clone-all`, can be installed by copying over the `clone-all.1` file to `/usr/share/man/man1`.
## One-line installation
```bash
$ bash -c "$(curl -fsSL raw.github.com/iamnewton/clone-all/go/install)"
```
N.B. - using the one-line installation will download and install all of the dependencies, including the man page.
## Usage
```bash
$ clone-all [options] []
```
### Options
| Flag | Meaning |
| :--------------------| :------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `-h, --help` | Print out help text |
| `-f, --feed ` | `` can be either `gists` or `repos`, default is `repos` |
| `-v, --version` | Print out version |
N.B. - Default `` is `$HOME/Downloads`.
