Converted one of my shell aliases to Golang, just to use goroutines. It is a lot faster than using GNU parallel.

I run this daily on a directory where I have to pull around 30 git repositories.

Decided to put multiple utils into the same binary since the min binary size is 4MB.

It is currently at 4.5MB since I used an external CLI library. 😮
