Explore backing up/restoring macOS application config (tape, lra, etc)

[0xdevalias]

Just stumbled across the following project which sounds kind of like what I was thinking of trying to build!

• https://github.com/vitorgalvao/tape
  • https://github.com/vitorgalvao/tape/tree/main/Definitions
  • https://github.com/vitorgalvao/tape/issues/3
• https://github.com/lra/mackup

  • Keep your application settings in sync (OS X/Linux)

  • brew install mackup
  • https://github.com/lra/mackup/tree/master/mackup/applications
  • https://github.com/lra/mackup/issues/154
• https://github.com/clintmod/macprefs

  • Backup and Restore your Mac System and App Preferences (e.g. defaults write)

  • https://github.com/mathiasbynens/dotfiles/blob/master/.macos
  • brew install clintmod/formulas/macprefs
• https://github.com/alichtman/shallow-backup

  • shallow-backup lets you easily create lightweight backups of installed packages, applications, fonts and dotfiles, and automatically push them to a remote Git repository.
