Manage your dotfiles
with confidence

Linux-first CLI for managing your dotfiles with git. Secure, selective, and built for modern workflows.

Everything you need

Built to solve the pain points of existing dotfile managers using modern tooling.

Track only what you choose. No full-home git repositories or accidental commits of sensitive files.

Full version history with snapshots. Branch, merge, and rebase your configuration just like code.

Age-encrypted sidecars ensure your secrets are safe. Plaintext never touches your git history.

Event-driven watcher stages changes automatically. Efficient and fast without recursive scans.

Deploy and rollback with confidence. Restore previous configurations instantly if something breaks.

Respects standard Linux paths and conventions. Keeps your home directory clean and organized.

Install the CLI, initialize your repository, and start tracking your first config file. It's that simple.

Intuitive commands that feel familiar to git users.

Your secrets are encrypted before they hit the disk.
