Hi there
Coming from Windows sysop, dev and, partially, devops.
Not much experience with Linux home management, and there are still too many options, even if I pruned my attention to bluefin.
Please help.
Do you mean configuration files, like in ./config?
If so, chezmoi is included in Bluefin (I think), and uses a git repo to store your files and their changes.
I also use it for my scripts in ./local/bin, and others.
If chezmoi isn’t included, you can brew install chezmoi to install it.

Thank you. But there is a real task I just failed: my atuin somehow broke, and after some trials i (hopefullly) fixed it with ujust bluefin-cli. But there were no customizations that I’d have liked to compare.
And just a side note: there is too much in CLI tools related to synchronization between machines. Because of this, their own docs look as overburden for newbies.
Yes, I use it in a very simple way.
“Save these files.”
And that is about it.
I don’t try to move them between machines.
I’d suggest to create a section in the Bluefin docs for narrowed down and fine-tuned documentation of the excellent third-party stuff.
Or any other way to focus on ideomatic habits (preserving OS’ immutability etc.) where the original docs are targeted broadly.
At the bottom of each page there is an link where you can contribute changes to the docs.
