Atlan

A small Linux CLI to export and import configuration files from different hosts by syncing them to a common git repository.

How to install

Download the last atlan CLI release from Releases.

Make executable chmod +x atlan

Move the file to /usr/bin to make it available system wide.

How to use

On the origin

• Create a first empty configuration: atlan config create
• Edit the file created at ~/.config/atlan/config.yaml
• Update the key: git_repo with your destination git repo
• Add the list of file you want to sync under the files key

• Run atlan backup to sync the list of files on your repo

On the destination
