Overlay without committing
Apply shared config files to any git repo. Files are automatically excluded via .git/info/exclude — no .gitignore changes needed.
repoverlay
Overlay config files into git repositories without committing them. Symlink or copy shared configs — automatically excluded from git.
Features
Section titled “Features”Symlink or copy
Files are symlinked by default for instant updates, or use --copy when symlinks aren't suitable.
GitHub-native
Pull overlays directly from GitHub repos, branches, tags, or subdirectories. Cached locally with shallow clones.
Fork inheritance
Working on a fork? repoverlay automatically falls back to the upstream repo's overlays when yours don't exist yet.
