dotdrop
A dotfile manager that stores configurations in Git and deploys different versions across multiple hosts using profiles.
What is dotdrop?
Dotdrop is a dotfile manager that stores configuration files in a Git repository and deploys them across multiple machines using customizable profiles. It solves the problem of maintaining different versions of the same dotfile for different hosts, such as personal laptops and work desktops, by allowing templating, variable substitution, and profile-specific configurations.
Developers and system administrators who work across multiple machines and need to keep their shell, editor, and application configurations synchronized and host-specific.
Developers choose Dotdrop for its powerful profile system and templating engine, which provide fine-grained control over dotfile deployment without duplicating repositories. Its ability to handle sensitive data and integrate actions makes it a comprehensive solution for dotfile management.
