Ask HN: How do you sync your computers development configurations/environment?
I'll echo the other comments recommending to stick with "defaults". However, I do like having the ability to sync my installed packages and apps across machines, so I wrote a little script to update/reinstall packages on macOS using brew: https://github.com/maxpetretta/dotfiles
Between my dotfiles and cloud storage, you could throw my laptop in a lake and I could configure a brand new machine in an hour or two.
