    This script polls GitLab for repositories you are a part of, then clones them to the working directory. If the script has already run once and/or there are repositories already present in the working directory, it will instead fetch and pull the origin remote.

    Make sure create a private token in settings and add it in the script (https://gitlab.ssec.wisc.edu/profile/personal_access_tokens).
