Manage your dotfiles across multiple diverse machines, securely. chezmoi helps you manage your personal configuration files (dotfiles, like ~/.gitconfig) across multiple machines. chezmoi provides many features beyond symlinking or using a bare git repo including templates (to handle small differences between machines), password manager support (to store your secrets securely), importing files from archives (great for shell and editor plugins), full file encryption (using gpg or age), and running scripts (to handle everything else). chezmoi is helpful if you have spent time customizing the tools you use (e.g. shells, editors, and version control systems) and want to keep machines running different accounts (e.g. home and work) and/or different operating systems (e.g. Linux, macOS, and Windows) in sync, while still being able to easily cope with differences from machine to machine.
