  * [HomelabOS - Syncing Settings via Git](https://homelabos.com/docs/setup/installation/#syncing-settings-via-git "HomelabOS - Syncing Settings via Git") — HomelabOS will automatically keep the settings/ folder in sync with a git repo if it has one. So you can create a private repo on your Gitea instance for example, then clone that repo over the settings folder. Now any changes you make to settings/ files will be commited and pushed to that git repo whenever you run make, make update or make config.
