# syntevo's own words, from the SmartGit product page: "SmartGit · Visual Git

# The Homebrew cask links the app's executable onto the PATH as `SmartGit`:

# `binary "#{appdir}/SmartGit.app/Contents/MacOS/SmartGit"`

# (Casks/s/smartgit.rb). On Linux the archive is started from its own bin

# directory rather than from a name on the PATH, so only the cask-verified

# spelling is claimed here.

detect = ["SmartGit"]

# The settings directory is documented in syntevo's own manual, "SmartGit

# Installation File Locations"

# (https://docs.syntevo.com/SmartGit/26.1/Manual/Installation/Installation-and-Files.html):

# Windows "%APPDATA%\syntevo\SmartGit\<major-smartgit-version>"

# macOS "~/Library/Preferences/SmartGit/<major-smartgit-version>"

# Linux "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/smartgit/<major-smartgit-version>"

# (defaults to ~/.config if the variable is undefined)

# Three genuinely different places, so each is written out and `platforms` is

# left alone; a consumer skips the ones that do not exist. No named base

# directory fits: [preferences] is macOS-only and [configHome] would resolve to

# ~/.config on macOS and %APPDATA%\smartgit on Windows, neither of which

# SmartGit touches. The Linux spelling therefore hard-codes the XDG default

# even though SmartGit does read $XDG_CONFIG_HOME — that is a limitation of

# writing the location out per platform, and it is the safer half of the

# trade.

# The Homebrew cask's zap stanza agrees on the macOS half:

# ~/Library/Preferences/SmartGit.

# The trailing `*/` is the major version the manual names, so a machine with

# 24.1 beside 25.1 carries both. The manual lists what is inside:

# preferences.yml ("application-wide settings"), accelerators.yml ("keyboard

# shortcuts"), tools.yml ("external tools"), bugtracker.yml, notifications.yml,

# repositories.yml, repository-grouping.yml, hosting-providers.yml,

# ui-config.yml and ui-state.yml.

paths = [

"[preferences]/SmartGit/*/",

"~/.config/smartgit/*/",

"%APPDATA%/syntevo/SmartGit/*/",

]

# The same manual page describes `logs/*` as "debug log information". Each

# spelling of the settings directory needs its own carve-out, or the copy on

# the platform that was left out syncs the logs the others drop.

# repository-cache ("cached repository state information") and ui-state.yml

# ("window sizes, positions and column widths") are per-machine too, but the

# manual does not say whether the first is a file or a directory, and a rule

# that names the wrong shape silently matches nothing — so they are described

# here rather than guessed at.

exclude = [

"[preferences]/SmartGit/*/logs/",

"~/.config/smartgit/*/logs/",

"%APPDATA%/syntevo/SmartGit/*/logs/",

]

# The same page names three files that are credentials end to end, and each is

# listed under every spelling of the settings directory:

# license "stores license key"

# passwords "encrypted file storing passwords"

# credentials.yml "authentication information"

# hosting-providers.yml is deliberately not here: the manual describes it as

# "hosting provider account details" and gives authentication its own file

# above, so it is the non-secret half — the provider, its URL and the account

# name.

secret = [

"[preferences]/SmartGit/*/license",

"[preferences]/SmartGit/*/passwords",

"[preferences]/SmartGit/*/credentials.yml",

# No machine_lines: preferences.yml, accelerators.yml and tools.yml are the

# settings, shortcuts and external tools a user wants everywhere.

# repositories.yml is the one file full of this machine's absolute clone paths,

# but the manual does not publish its key names, and a key_path rule that

# resolves to nothing is worse than no rule at all.

Opens otty://sync/add/smartgit. Otty ships with this catalog, so the link only has to name the tool — nothing is downloaded.

Every one of these keeps all credential files out.
