bloom repo

Manage repositories in your workspace.

Commands​

clone​

Clone a repository into the workspace.

bloom repo clone <url|org/repo>

Examples:

# Full URL
bloom repo clone https://github.com/myorg/backend.git
bloom repo clone git@github.com:myorg/backend.git

# Shorthand (uses configured protocol)
bloom repo clone myorg/backend
bloom repo clone steveyackey/bloom

What happens:

  1. Creates repo directory: repos/backend/
  2. Creates bare repository: repos/backend/backend.git/
  3. Creates default worktree: repos/backend/main/
  4. Adds entry to bloom.config.yaml

create​

Create a new local repository.

bloom repo create <name>

Example:

bloom repo create my-new-service

Creates:

  • repos/my-new-service/my-new-service.git/ — Empty bare repo
  • repos/my-new-service/main/ — Initial worktree

list​

List all repositories in the workspace.

bloom repo list

Output:

Repositories:
  backend     git@github.com:myorg/backend.git
  frontend    git@github.com:myorg/frontend.git
  shared      git@github.com:myorg/shared.git

sync​

Clone/fetch all repositories from configuration.

bloom repo sync

This reads bloom.config.yaml and:

  • Clones any missing repositories
  • Fetches updates for existing repositories

remove​

Remove a repository and all its worktrees.

bloom repo remove <name>

Example:

bloom repo remove old-service
warning

This permanently deletes local changes. Push important work first.

Worktree Commands​

worktree add​

Create a new worktree for a branch.

bloom repo worktree add <repo> <branch>

Examples:

# Existing branch
bloom repo worktree add backend feature/existing-branch

# New branch (created from current HEAD)
bloom repo worktree add backend feature/new-feature

Creates directory: repos/backend/feature-new-feature/

worktree remove​

Remove a worktree.

bloom repo worktree remove <repo> <branch>

Example:

bloom repo worktree remove backend feature/completed

This removes the directory but preserves the branch in git.

worktree list​

List all worktrees for a repository.

bloom repo worktree list <repo>

Output:

Worktrees for backend:
  main              repos/backend
  feature/auth      repos/backend-feature-auth
  feature/api       repos/backend-feature-api

Configuration​

Repositories are tracked in bloom.config.yaml:

repos:
  - url: git@github.com:myorg/backend.git
    name: backend
  - url: git@github.com:myorg/frontend.git
    name: frontend
