Git Repo Manager

A lightning-fast, frictionless, zero-dependency, zero-bloat, KISS repository manager that lists your personal and organizations GitHub repositories, allowing you to clone, open in browser, or create new ones if you want to. No more navigating through multiple pages to find the repo you need. Just click and go!

🚀 Installation

The VSIX package is available at Open VSX Registry | VS Marketplace.

  1. Open any VS Code Family Editor (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VSCodium).
  2. Go to Extensions.
  3. Search for Git Repo Manager and select this extension.
  4. Click Install.

✨ Features

  • Blazing Fast & Lightweight: Built strictly with Vanilla JavaScript and native APIs. Zero external dependencies, no compilation bloat.
  • Smart SSH/HTTPS Cloning: Automatically reads your ~/.ssh/config to offer precise SSH alias routes or standard HTTPS options via a clean QuickPick menu when cloning.
  • Unified Repository View: Access your Personal and Organization repositories in one clean, grouped sidebar panel.
  • Native Security: Utilizes the editor's built-in GitHub authentication—no manual PAT setup required.
  • One-Click Actions: Hover over any repository to Clone, Open in Browser, or Copy the URL.
  • Create on the Fly: Add new public or private repositories directly to your personal account or organizations without leaving your editor.

🚀 Usage

You can trigger the extension from wherever you are working:

  • Sign In: Click the Git Repo Manager icon in the Activity Bar and click the account icon at the top to securely authenticate.
  • Browse: Expand your Personal folder or any listed Organization to view your repositories.
  • Hover Actions: Hover over a repository to reveal quick actions: Clone, Open in Browser, and Copy URL. (These are also available via right-click context menu).
  • Smart Clone: Clicking Clone opens a QuickPick menu tailored to your local SSH configurations, allowing you to route traffic exactly how you prefer, followed by the native folder destination picker.
  • Create Repo: Click the + icon next to an organization or personal folder to create a new repository under that specific account.
  • Manage Accounts: Use the Sign Out or Switch Account icons in the panel header to seamlessly swap contexts.
