## Historique du projet et usages

dotdrop is a dotfile manager for storing dotfiles once and deploying different versions or sets across hosts by using profiles, templating, variables, and a central config.yaml.

### Historique du projet

The official README frames dotdrop around a specific gap in dotfile tools: many can manage files, but fewer can deploy different versions of the same dotfile on different hosts. Its model stores dotfiles in Git, keeps metadata in config.yaml, and uses profiles to choose which files and variables apply on each machine.

GitHub release metadata shows public releases from the v0.10 series in 2018 through the v1.16 series in 2026, indicating a long-lived Python CLI with continued maintenance.

### Historique d'adoption

dotdrop adoption comes from users whose dotfiles outgrow simple symlink farms: multiple machines, overlapping file sets, per-host variables, templates, import/update workflows, and optional handling for sensitive content.

The official README advertises distribution through PyPI, Homebrew, AUR, Snapcraft, and Pacstall, while source facts list Homebrew, Debian, and Ubuntu.

### Modes d'utilisation

Users initialize or clone a dotfiles repository, install dotdrop, generate config.yaml, import dotfiles, and deploy selected profiles. Commands such as import and compare are central to the workflow, with dotpath, profiles, variables, templates, actions, and transformations configured in YAML.

The tool is especially useful when a home laptop, work desktop, temporary VM, and other hosts share many dotfiles but need different deployed subsets or template values.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

dotdrop is package-nerd significant as the profile-and-template-heavy alternative in the dotfiles space. It is more opinionated than a tiny bootstrapper but still lives as a CLI around Git, YAML, and predictable files.

For packagers, its value is in giving users a maintained command-line tool instead of copy-pasted shell glue for multi-host dotfile deployment.

### Chronologie

- 2018: GitHub release metadata shows v0.10.x public releases.
- 2020s: dotdrop is distributed through PyPI, Homebrew, AUR, Snapcraft, and other package channels.
- 2026: GitHub release metadata shows v1.16.x releases.

### Related projects

- dotdrop is related to other dotfiles managers and bootstrap tools, including Dotbot, GNU Stow-style symlink workflows, chezmoi-like multi-host management, Git-backed dotfiles repositories, and package channels such as PyPI, Homebrew, AUR, and Snapcraft.
