systory

systory is a git wrapper meant to help sysadmins with highly-fluid systems (like devboxes and personal computers).

It assumes a single system administrator.

It mainly allows you to use git as a history tracking mechanisms such as git commit --allow-empty so you can make log notes.

99% of the time systory COMMAND is a wrapper for git -C /path/to/history COMMAND, however:

systory [init|sync [--sudo]|delete [--sudo]|addcommit]:

• init will start the folder
• Use sync is like cp- it will copy the file into the repo, imagine:

$ ls /etc
my_config.conf
$ systory sync *

This will create an ~/etc/my_config.conf in ~/system/history

• delete is like sync.

Neither require -r, but do accept dirs.

• addcommit will add and commit the whole directory. Anything piped into it will be availabe in the commit.

history | systory addcommit "Begin commit message here" is a good idea.

A packages-Qe file, the output of yay -Qe, will be in the root directory.

• go will take you to the directory. You can then use popd.
