Hello,
I am writing to inquire about a feature request, issue #1665 on the
gitgitgadget/git GitHub repository, which proposes adding a "hostname"
condition for conditional includes.
The proposal, opened by Diogo-Rossi on February 15, 2024, suggests a
new keyword to match the machine's hostname. As noted in the issue, a
primary use case for this would be to simplify dotfiles management
across different machines, which can be cumbersome with the current
approaches.
The example provided was:
[includeIf "hostname:FIRSTMACHINE"]
path = /path/to/firstmachineconfig.inc
I noticed that the issue is still open and does not appear to have any
assignees or linked pull requests at this time.
I am interested in this feature and would like to ask if this is a
direction the project would consider. If there is interest and no one
is currently working on this, I would be happy to begin investigating
and potentially work on a patch.
Thank you for your time and all your work on Git.
Best regards,
Ayush Sharma
