smoosh

Smoosh together files from one or more repos into a target directory. Designed primarily for using git repos to back your dotfiles.

Usage

Smoosh uses a basic config file:

root: /Users/akerl
tmpdir: /Users/akerl/.smoosh/cache
sources:
  - url: https://github.com/akerl/dotfiles
    name: public-dotfiles
    ignore:
      - ^README.md$

Several fields are optional:

• root will default to the user's homedir
• tmpdir will default to ~/.smoosh/cache
• A source's name will default to the last element of the URL, as delimited by forward slashes
• A source's ignore list is optional

Smoosh ignores .gitignore, .git, and .gitmodules automatically, regardless of what's set in the ignore list.

The config is read by default from ~/.smoosh/config.yml, and can be overriden by adding -c /path/to/your/file.

To update, run smoosh update
