- Assimilate Emacs packages as Git submodules
Borg is a bare-bones package manager for Emacs packages. It provides only a few essential features and should be combined with other tools such as [[https://github.com/magit/magit][Magit]], [[https://github.com/emacscollective/epkg][epkg]], [[https://github.com/jwiegley/use-package][use-package]], and [[https://github.com/tarsius/auto-compile][auto-compile]].
Borg assimilates packages into the =~/.config/emacs= repository as Git submodules. An assimilated package is called a drone and a borg-based =~/.config/emacs= repository is called a collective.
