[Experimental] Easily backup your current development environment to Github and restore on any device

Rollover

Rollover allows you to backup your configs and scripts to your Github/Gitlab automatically using a pre-specified list.

Getting Started

• Fork & clone this repository
• Create a repository for saving your backups (remember to make it private if you will be backing up sensitive data eg. .ssh folder)
• Modify include.txt to contain a list of files you want to backup; relative to ~ or your home directory
• Run the command below to get started:

chmod +x ./rollover.sh && ./rollover.sh

Important notes

• You need to have GIT (and SSH if you use SSH with your Github or Gitlab) set up on your machine
• Rollover can restore any version of your backup from GIT but, you should know it will replace existing version of those files on your machine.

  MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING!
