Manage files across git repositories.

• You want files like CLAUDE.md available in your repository
• You don't want to commit these files to the repository
• You want to track changes to these files in a central location

nix profile install github:oschrenk/infuse

Prebuilt binaries come from the oschrenk Cachix cache, which the flake offers as a substituter.

task install

infuse init          # create config file
# edit ~/.config/infuse/config.toml to set your repo path
infuse setup         # prepare working repository

Create the config file at $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/infuse/config.toml.

Prepare the current working repository for use with infuse. Creates the infuse repository and directory structure if needed.

Move files into the infuse repository and symlink them back.

infuse add CLAUDE.md
infuse add src/config/settings.yaml
infuse add file1 file2 file3

Print the infuse repository path. Useful with:

cd $(infuse dir)

Show all files managed by infuse for the current working repository.

$ infuse status
PATH              SYMLINK  GIT
CLAUDE.md         ok       clean
taskfile.yml      ok       modified
.env              missing  clean

Config file location: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/infuse/config.toml

Example:

[repo]
path = "$XDG_DATA_HOME/infuse"

The infuse repository must be a git repository. Run infuse setup to initialize it.
