Stash clear for subfolders of provided PATH

gistfile1.rb

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
def no_folder
  Kernel.abort 'No Folder provided. Exiting...'
end

def prompt(*args)
  print(*args)
  gets.strip
end

def clear_stash(folder)
  puts 'clearing stash for folder ' + folder
  cmd = "cd #{folder} && git stash clear"
  `#{cmd}`
end


if ARGV.length > 0
  path = ARGV.first.chomp
  ARGV.clear
  no_folder unless File.directory? path
  folders = Dir.entries(path).select {|entry| File.directory? File.join(path,entry) and !(entry =='.' || entry == '..') }
  proceed = false
  while !['y','n'].include?(proceed)
    proceed = prompt("This will attempt to clear the stash in the following folders: \n" + folders.join("\n") + "\n\n Proceed? (y/n)")
    if proceed == 'y'
      folders.map{|folder| File.absolute_path(folder)}.each{|folder| clear_stash(folder)}
    end
  end
else
  no_folder
end

My 2 cents:

• Put #!/usr/bin/env ruby in the first line
• Rename your file to stash_clear
• Change the permission of the file to be executable (chmod +x stash_clear)

Done! Now you can call ./stash_clear
