  • Sources: chezmoi 2.71.0 release
  • Summary: chezmoi 2.71.0 released on 2026-07-07. It adds --revision and --tag flags to the init command for pinning a dotfiles checkout, an --error-on-conflict flag, KeePassXC open mode on Windows, Windows MSIX package builds, and a switch to a new HTTP caching library.
  • Why it matters: The init revision and tag flags let a machine bootstrap from a fixed dotfiles state rather than the latest commit.
