+__gitup__ (the _git-repo-updater_)
+
+gitup is a tool designed to pull to a large number of git repositories at once.
+It is smart enough to ignore projects with dirty working directories, and
+provides a great way to get everything up-to-date for those short periods of
+internet access between long periods of none.
+
+gitup works on both OS X and Linux. You should have the latest version of git
+and at least Python 2.7 installed.
+
+# Installation
+
+First:
+
+    git clone git://github.com/earwig/git-repo-updater.git
+    cd git-repo-updater
+
+Then, to install for everyone:
+
+    sudo python setup.py install
+
+...or for just yourself (make sure you have `~/.local/bin` in your PATH):
+
+    python setup.py install --user
+
+Finally, simply delete the `git-repo-updater` directory, and you're done!
+
+# Usage
+
+There are two ways to update projects: you can pass them as command arguments,
+or save them as "bookmarks".
+
+For example:
+
+    gitup ~/projects/foo ~/projects/bar ~/projects/baz
+
+...will automatically pull to the `foo`, `bar`, and `baz` git repositories if
+their working directories are clean (to avoid merge conflicts). Additionally,
+you can just type:
+
+    gitup ~/projects
+
+...to automatically update all git repositories in that directory.
+
+To add a bookmark (or bookmarks), either of these will work:
+
+    gitup --add ~/projects/foo ~/projects/bar ~/projects/baz
+    gitup --add ~/projects
+
+Then, to update (pull to) all of your bookmarks, just run gitup without args:
+
+    gitup
+
+Deleting a bookmark is as easy as adding one:
+
+    gitup --delete ~/projects
+
+Want to view your current bookmarks? Simple:
+
+    gitup --list
+
+You can mix and match bookmarks and command arguments:
+
+    gitup --add ~/projects/foo ~/projects/bar
+    gitup ~/projects/baz            # update 'baz' only
+    gitup                           # update 'foo' and 'bar' only
+    gitup ~/projects/baz --update   # update all three!
+
+Want to update all git projects in your current directory?
+
+    gitup .
+
+For a list of all command arguments and abbreviations:
+
+    gitup --help
+
+Finally, all paths can be either absolute (e.g. /path/to/project) or relative
+(e.g. ../my/project).
