Decreased CO2 saturation during circular breathwork supports emergence of altered states of consciousness - Communications Psychology

Circular breathwork induces altered states of consciousness similar to psychedelics, predicted by decreases in CO2 saturation. Acute physiological and psychological dynamics during breathwork in turn predict sustained mental health benefits.

🧠 The Problem


When working on multiple local branches (say for different client tasks, features, or experiments), you often:

  • Switch to a branch using git checkout
  • Pull the latest changes using git pull
  • Repeat this for every other branch

That’s fine for 2-3 branches. But what if you have 10, 20, or even 30?

“There has to be a better way.”


Spoiler: There is. ✅

🛠️ The Goal


We want to pull the latest changes from the remote for every local branch without manually checking each one out.

Let’s automate that!

🚀 Step-by-Step Solution


Here’s how to pull updates for all branches at once:

✅ Step 1: List All Local Branches


git branch

This gives you a list like:

main
* feature/login
bugfix/footer
refactor/api

Great — but we want to loop through these branches.

🧪 Step 2: Loop Through Branches and Pull


Here’s a handy Bash script that does the job:

#!/bin/bash

current_branch=$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)

for branch in $(git for-each-ref --format='%(refname:short)' refs/heads/); do
echo "🔄 Checking out $branch..."
git checkout "$branch" > /dev/null 2>&1

echo "⬇️ Pulling latest changes for $branch..."
git pull --rebase

echo "✅ Done with $branch"
echo "-------------------------"
done

# Switch back to original branch
git checkout "$current_branch" > /dev/null 2>&1
echo "🚀 All done! Back on $current_branch"


Save this script as git-pull-all.sh and make it executable:


chmod +x git-pull-all.sh

Run it with:

./git-pull-all.sh

🧠 A Few Notes


  • The script uses --rebase instead of a plain pull to keep history clean. You can remove it if you prefer merge commits.
  • Works best if all branches are tracking remote ones (e.g. origin/main, origin/feature/login etc.).
  • If you use authentication (like SSH keys or PATs), make sure you're authenticated before running the script.
