Rename java packages on all branches: script.

#java #bash #programming #git

Found yourself in need of a script that loops through all branches in a project and renames the package name? No?

It's a bit of a strange situation to be in I grant you, but if you have a project with a lot of branches for some strange reason, and you'd like to change the name / structure of your package. Then this is the script for you!

This scripts takes the paramaters:
Nested packages work just as well.

NOTE: it also pushes on all branches, please comment it out on the first try run.

#!/bin/bash

# Script made to loop though the src/main/java and the src/test/java directories and rename
# the packages based on the input. 
# Example: sh renameJavaPackages.sh to.dev.bacongubbe dev.bacongubbe.example /Users/bacongubbe/Projects/peskyproject
