What dotfiles manager do you use?
I'm looking for recommendations for a dotfile manager - there are so many out there I've got a bit of options paralysis!
I'd like a system that can backup all my dotfiles - with version management - and, if I nuked my home directory, could restore them all for me with a simple command.
Thanks in advance for you suggestions!

What do you find complicated? I'm happy to help you with it. It also seemed complicated to me, but once I understood it it was pretty simple to use (unless you wanna do advanced stuff.)
The way the autocommiting works is weird, have to use regular git commands for that. Also templating doesn't work for me. I was trying to establish a file with the same content across multiple devices in different subfolders but it kind of didn't work out.
That's unfortunate, because I commit manually (I want to write the messages) and I never needed to template the filepaths. I'm using file templates and it works flawlessly tho.
