Generally I agree, though for lighter-weight stuff like personal config management, I’ve grown fond of chezmoi [0]. It has templating support, so I can do things like auto-detect if it’s a work machine or personal, and render the appropriate files where needed.

I think it can also do rudimentary app management via storing a lockfile, but I haven’t tried that out.
