gitcheck
gitcheck is a program that checks local git repositories and reports their status, both local and with respect to their remote (with the "-r" option).
To run, all that's needed is the executable (and Python 3). Tested most on Linux (Debian and Ubuntu) and OS X, it would require considerable work to function on Windows.
See TODO.md for the current TODO list.
I'm hoping to keep this as a single executable as it helps with portability.
Known Issues
The config generator has improved, but has a significant problem: when you regenerate the config (ie. you already have an existing config), all existing comments in the config will be removed (this is a known failing of Python's configparser module). The default behaviour of "-c" is to generate the new config on stdout: this is recommended (rather than replacing the existing config), then edit the changes into the old config by hand.
The config generator may mark an already known repo as new. Doesn't seem to happen often, but it's a known bug that I haven't tracked down.
Mismatched fetch/push remotes: I haven't had a setup that included this, so the program attempts to bow out gracefully (the code is untested).
Checking status of remotes can be slow (the more repositories with non-local remotes, the slower it is): no way to fix that, but there's a progress indicator.

Similar Applications
Myrepos has a similar idea to this program, but a great deal more functionality: it can handle multiple types of version control systems, and will do code pulls and pushes as well as reporting status.
Other people thought "gitcheck" was a good name as well:
badele/gitcheck I prefer my model (multiple directories decided by config, whereas this just does the local directory), but this looks well-constructed.
There are more, but the point is made.
