Dotfile Management

Keep your dotfiles safe without a separate dotfile manager. mine stash tracks config files in a git-backed local store, lets you diff changes, and keeps everything versioned.

Key Capabilities

• Track any file — point at a config file and it’s copied into the stash
• Diff changes — see which tracked files have been modified since last commit
• Git-backed — stash directory is a git repo, so you get full version history
• List tracked files — see all files you’re managing with their source paths
• XDG-compliant — stash lives at ~/.local/share/mine/stash/

Quick Example

# Initialize the stash
mine stash init

# Track your shell and editor configs
mine stash track ~/.zshrc
mine stash track ~/.config/nvim/init.lua

# Check what's changed
mine stash diff

How It Works

Run mine stash init once to create the stash directory. Then mine stash track <file> copies a file into the stash and starts tracking it. When you want to see what’s changed, mine stash diff compares tracked files against their stash copies.

Since the stash directory is git-backed, you get commit history for free. Use mine stash list to see everything you’re tracking.
