# get a list of directories with .git
find "/path/to/" -type d -name '.git' -print0 |

# prepare a bunch of shell commands
xargs -0 --replace=MY_GIT_DIR  \
  echo '(D='MY_GIT_DIR';
         cd "$D" && echo Working in "$D";
         git pull your_git_options_here;

# execute them sequentially
sh 2>&1 |

# and send their output somewhere by email
mail -s 'git jobs output' me@example.com
