Dotdrop is a Python CLI tool for managing dotfiles across multiple machines. It stores dotfiles in Git and deploys different versions of the same files to different hosts using profiles and Jinja2 templating.
Use cases
- manage my dotfiles across multiple machines
- deploy different versions of config files per host
- sync dotfiles with git
- template my zshrc with host-specific variables
- manage separate dotfile sets for laptop and desktop
- store sensitive dotfiles encrypted
- bootstrap a new machine with my configs
When to choose
- you use multiple machines with overlapping but differing configs
- you want Jinja2 templating and per-profile dotfile sets
- you need encrypted or transformed dotfile storage
When to avoid
- you want a simple bare-git dotfiles repo without tooling
- you need a GUI dotfile manager
- you only manage one machine
