I don't understand why anyone would bother doing something like Stow. I keep my home directory directly in a Git repository that ignores all files by default, and for systems with specific configurations, I simply create a branch.

But if you have 6-10 machines you use and they're all a bit different, doesn't the branching get a bit tedious when you want to edit something that's common for all?

Vs. the chezmoi way of keeping everything common except using templates for diverging files.
