I’m looking for recommendations for a dotfile manager - there are so many out there I’ve got a bit of options paralysis!

I’d like a system that can backup all my dotfiles - with version management - and, if I nuked my home directory, could restore them all for me with a simple command.

Thanks in advance for you suggestions!

    My home directory is a git repo with a .gitignore that contains something like

    
    *
    
    !.config/sway
    
    !.config/sway/*
    
    !.config/sway/**/*

      I thought about this, but doesn’t this make problems when working with other git repos in subfolders of your home directory?
