dotling remove

Remove entries from tracking.

Usage

dotling remove <ENTRIES>

Arguments

Description

dotling remove undeploys tracked entries and restores files to their original locations. For each entry:

1. Undeploy — removes the symlink (or copy) from the target path
2. Restore — moves the file from the repo back to its original target location
3. Decrypt — if the entry was encrypted, decrypts the file before restoring
4. Clean up — removes empty parent directories in the repo
5. Untrack — removes the entry from dotling.toml

The restored file is placed at its original target path, so your config files remain intact after removing them from dotling.

Examples

# Remove by source path
dotling remove shell/zshrc

# Remove by target path
dotling remove ~/.zshrc

# Remove multiple entries
dotling remove ~/.zshrc ~/.bashrc

# Partial match works too
dotling remove zshrc
