Can I git push another directory?

Question

I want to write a batch file to run git add, git commit and git push on a bunch of repositories on my machine so I don't have to do it manually every time. Do git commands have a directory path parameter?

You could probably also just `cd` into the directories as part of your batch file. — Thilo, Dec 02 '19 at 13:46

The common option -C specifies the directory you want git to treat as the current directory:

git -C ~/myGit commit -m "great commit message"

is effectively equivalent to

cd ~/myGit ; git commit -m "great commit message"

except that it doesn't actually change the current directory in the current shell.
