Tuckr is a dotfile manager inspired by Stow and Git. Tuckr aims to make dotfile management less painful. It follows the same model as Stow, symlinking files onto $HOME. It works on all the major OSes (Linux, Windows, BSDs and MacOS).
Tuckr aims to bring the simplicity of Stow to a dotfile manager with a very small learning curve. To achieve that goal Tuckr tries to only cover what is directly needed to manage dotfiles and nothing else. We won’t wrap git, rm, cp or reimplement the functionality that are perfeclty covered by other utilities in the system unless it greatly impacts usability.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- No configuration.
- Commands can be run from anywhere.
- Symlinks are tracked and validated.
- Configuration files are grouped and handled as a logical unit.
- Provide ability to run hooks (scripts) that facilitate deployment and uninstallation.
- Easily encrypt and deploy sensitive configuration files.
