How can I view all the git repositories on my machine?

Question

Is there a way in which I can see all the git repositories that exist on my machine? Any command for that?

Answer 1

ORIGINAL ANSWER: This works pretty well from Windows Powershell:

Get-ChildItem . -Attributes Directory+Hidden -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue -Include ".git" -Recurse

EDIT #1: -Filter is twice as fast as -Include. Here is that solution:

Get-ChildItem . -Attributes Directory+Hidden -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue -Filter ".git" -Recurse

EDIT #2: Keith E. Truesdell mentioned sending the output to a file. See his comment for that solution. I prefer console output. But his comment got me thinking that I prefer just the full path, not the whole mess that is returned by default. If you want that just the full path, use the following:

Get-ChildItem . -Attributes Directory+Hidden -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue -Filter ".git" -Recurse | % { Write-Host $_.FullName }

FINAL NOTE: The above solutions only return Git repositories under the current directory. If you want ALL repositories on a drive, you should run the command once from the root of each drive.
