Using GNU Stow to manage your dotfiles (2012)
There's also `homesick`[1], which is a Ruby dotfile manager. If you don't feel like managing a Ruby distro and want something more portable (and `homesick` looks to be a stale project anyway), you can use `homeshick`[2] which is a Bash port that's still being maintained. (I use `homeshick`)
The last time I dug into this, `homeshick` was had more features and fit my needs better than `stow`.
Alternatively, check out YADM[3], "Yet Another Dotfile Manager", which I'm probably switching to once I get some time.

Updating modules to Puppet 8
The Puppet 8 compatibility guide detailed the major changes we had to be aware of and we found it invaluable the effort. It's probably worth bookmarking that page until you're done with the upgrade.

Faster module tests with Facter 4 and rspec-puppet
We started by decoupling Puppet from Facter as much as we could, introducing the possibility of having multiple Facter backends. While Puppet would use the default Facter implementation when running on its own, external users would be able to define and pass their own Facter implementation when initializing Puppet, similar to how puppetserver configures Puppet to use its JRuby-compliant HTTP client.
What are some alternatives?
