cozydot is an automated post-install, update, & config (dotfile) manager for Linux, with a focus on idempotency & repeatability. Supports Debian-based / Ubuntu-based distros, & GNOME / Cinnamon desktop environments. Riced & themed with Catppuccin.

Features:

• More than a post-install script. cozydot updates your system & can be run at any time, & not only on fresh installs.
• Latest & greatest packages. cozydot uses 3rd-party apt repos, Flatpak, AppImage & Cargo to deliver up-to-date packages.
• Intuitive config files. cozydot uses customisable YAML files that are easily edited, or use available presets in configs/ directory.
• Uses native tools. With the exception of yq for querying config files & GNU Stow for managing dotfiles, cozydot uses already existing tools to perform each command.

cozydot configure

Fill up your name, email & signingkey (optional) in dotfiles/bash/.gitconfig. Optionally, run git update-index --assume-unchanged dotfiles/bash/.gitconfig to avoid committing your secrets to git.
