Release Notes

Features

Added

Multi-target file mappings in repoverlay.ccl

A source file can now map to multiple target paths using duplicate keys in the mappings section:

mappings = .editorconfig = .editorconfig .editorconfig = packages/frontend/.editorconfig

This copies the source file to every listed target. Single-value mappings continue to work as before. All targets are tracked in the overlay state file, so remove cleans up every copy.

Fixes

Fixed

Log warnings when .ccl state files fail to parse instead of silently skipping

Previously, corrupted or unparseable .ccl state files were silently ignored. Now repoverlay logs a warning message identifying the problematic file before skipping it, making it easier to diagnose configuration issues.

Save-source prompt duplicate-check now sees repo-local sources

prompt_save_source() loaded only global config when checking for duplicates, so it could prompt the user to save a source that was already configured at the repo level. The duplicate-check now loads the merged config (global + repo-local) while still writing saves to the global config file.

Command: library

Fixed

Surface file read errors in show_file_diff instead of silently treating as empty

Previously, if reading either the existing or overlay file failed in show_file_diff, the error was silently swallowed and the file was treated as empty. Now the function logs a warning and prints a user-visible warning message identifying the problematic file before returning early.

Validate overlay names reject path separators in release builds

OverlayName previously only checked for forward slashes via debug_assert, meaning invalid names with path separators (including backslashes) could slip through in release builds. Added OverlayName::try_new which returns an error for names containing / or \, and updated all user-input paths to use it.

Use atomic write-then-rename for state files to prevent corruption

State file writes previously used a non-atomic truncate-then-write pattern, which could leave corrupted or empty files if the process was interrupted mid-write. State files are now written to a temporary file in the same directory and atomically renamed into place using tempfile::NamedTempFile.

Command: apply

Fixed

Resolve three-part overlay references using repo-local sources

Three-part references like org/repo/overlay failed with "Overlay repository not configured" when the source was configured at the repo level via repoverlay source add. Repo-local sources in .repoverlay/config.ccl are now correctly loaded during resolution.

Match GitHub URLs against repo-local sources for overlay repo upgrade

When applying via a GitHub URL that matches a configured source, repoverlay upgrades to editable overlay repo mode. This matching now includes repo-local sources, not just global ones.

Command: create

Fixed

create --into library resolves library path relative to target repo instead of source

Previously, create --into library --source <path> placed the overlay into the source repo's library instead of the target repo's (cwd). Added --target parameter to the create command for explicit target specification, consistent with other commands like move and switch.

Command: move

Added

repoverlay move command for relocating overlays

Adds a new top-level move command that relocates an overlay's source files between locations while preserving applied state. Supports moving to the in-repo library (--to library), to a filesystem path (--to /path/to/dir), or renaming on move (--name).

The operation is interrupt-safe: files are copied to the destination, state is updated, symlinks are re-created pointing to the new location, then the source is deleted. If interrupted, the worst case is a duplicate that can be cleaned up manually.

Supports --force to overwrite existing destinations and --dry-run to preview changes.

v0.12.0 - 2026-03-27

Command: apply

Added

Add overlay composition via extends and includes

Overlays can now inherit files from other library overlays using two new repoverlay.ccl sections. Multi-level chains are supported with cycle detection.

extends inherits all files from a parent overlay. The child's own files take precedence on conflict, making this ideal for creating specialized variants of a base overlay:


extends =

  overlay = base-config

Use case: a claude-config-strict overlay that extends claude-config and overrides just the CLAUDE.md file while inheriting everything else.

includes cherry-picks specific files from other overlays, useful when you only need a few shared files without full inheritance:


includes =

  overlay = shared-dotfiles

  files =

    .editorconfig

    .prettierrc

Use case: multiple overlays that each need the same .editorconfig from a shared dotfiles overlay, without duplicating the file.

Both features are restricted to library overlays.

Command: create

Fixed

Fall back to tracked config files when using create --yes

When --yes is used and no AI config files are found, create now falls back to tracked config files (.envrc, .gitignore, .vscode/settings.json, etc.) instead of bailing. The auto-select priority is: AI configs first, tracked configs second, then error with a helpful message.

Command: edit

Fixed

Allow edit add without git remote origin

edit add with a short-form overlay name (e.g., my-overlay) no longer requires a git remote origin. Previously, the command called detect_target_repo() to resolve org/repo for an error message hint, but this is unnecessary for the actual operation. Now uses the same inline name extraction as edit remove and edit --interactive.

Directory exclusions now persist across remove/reapply cycles

Directories removed via edit remove no longer reappear when the overlay is removed and reapplied. The ExcludedFile struct now tracks whether an exclusion is for a file or directory, and directory exclusions match descendant paths. Also fixes trailing-slash handling (.vscode/ is now treated the same as .vscode) and makes external state backup failures a hard error to ensure exclusions are always persisted.

v0.11.1 - 2026-03-17

Fixes

Fixed

Allow overlay operations when git exclude updates fail

Apply, remove, and switch no longer abort when .git/info/exclude cannot be updated (e.g. in codespace worktrees with non-portable absolute paths). A warning is shown and the operation continues — overlay files may appear as untracked in git status.

v0.11.0 - 2026-03-17

Fixes

Fixed

Write git exclude entries to the common git directory for worktrees

Git reads info/exclude from the shared .git/ directory, not the worktree-specific $GIT_DIR. Overlay files applied in worktree checkouts would show as untracked because exclude entries were written to the wrong location. Now uses git rev-parse --git-path to resolve the correct path.

Command: library

Added

Add in-repo overlay library (repoverlay library)

You can now store overlays directly in your repository at .repoverlay/library/, making them shareable with your team via version control. The new library subcommand group provides full lifecycle management:

  • library list — see what's in the library

  • library import <path-or-name> — add an overlay (accepts filesystem paths or applied overlay names)

  • library export <name> <dest> — copy an overlay out of the library

  • library remove <name> — delete from the library

Library overlays integrate throughout the tool:

  • apply my-overlay resolves from the library first (highest priority)

  • apply my-overlay --from @library targets the library exclusively

  • create --into library creates overlays directly in the library

  • browse includes library overlays alongside configured sources

  • browse works with library-only repos — no external sources required

The library path defaults to .repoverlay/library/ but is configurable via library_path in your repo's repoverlay.ccl config. .gitignore is automatically updated to ensure library contents are tracked by git.

Command: browse

Added

Show last-updated timestamps for applied overlays in browse UI

Applied overlays now display relative timestamps (e.g. '2 days ago') in the browse selection UI instead of a plain 'already applied' label, making it easier to see how recently each overlay was synced.

Auto-detect flat folder layout for local sources

Local directory sources no longer require org/repo/name nesting. Flat directories are auto-detected: a directory with overlay files is treated as a single overlay, and subdirectories are each treated as separate overlays.

Changed

Promote browse as the primary overlay workflow

Updated help text, README, and CLI reference to recommend browse as the primary entry point for interactive use. The apply command remains available for scripting and power users. Improved the error message when no sources are configured.

Command: create

Added

Support glob patterns in --include flag

The --include flag on create now accepts glob patterns (e.g., *.md, .claude/**) in addition to exact file paths. Globs are expanded relative to the source repository root using standard glob syntax.

Fixed

Discover committed config files in source repositories

create now discovers tracked config files (e.g., .envrc, .vscode/, justfile, Cargo.toml, Dockerfile) in addition to AI configs, gitignored, and untracked files. Detection uses an exclusion-based heuristic that filters out source code, documentation, and media rather than trying to allowlist config patterns. Also fixes output path to create overlay at output/<name>/ subdirectory.

Performance

Fix UI hang on large repos during overlay creation

Skip transient tool state directories (worktrees/, todos/) during AI config directory walking, reducing discovered files from ~59K to ~22 on repos with large .claude/ directories. Also fix O(n²) ancestor traversal in the selection UI with a pre-built parent lookup map, and add a progress spinner with Ctrl+C support for git clone/pull operations.

Command: edit

Fixed

Fix edit add failing on directories with "Is a directory" error

The edit add command now correctly handles directories (e.g., .claude/commands) by using recursive directory copy, directory symlinks, and EntryType::Directory in overlay state. Rollback logic also properly restores directories on failure.

Remove git remote requirement for locally-applied overlays

edit add no longer requires a git remote origin when working with overlays applied from local paths. Remote detection is deferred to only when needed for overlay repo auto-commit.

Persist edit exclusions across remove/reapply cycles

Files removed via edit remove now stay removed when an overlay is removed and reapplied. Exclusions are tracked in overlay state and persisted in the external backup so they survive the full lifecycle.

Command: restore

Fixed

Restore broken symlinks without requiring --force

restore no longer errors when an overlay's state exists but its symlinked files have been deleted. Since restore's purpose is to re-create missing files, it now always forces past the "already applied" check.

Command: source

Added

Support local directory sources for overlays

Register directories as overlay sources using source add ./path. Local sources are stored in a per-repo config file (.repoverlay/config.ccl), which is automatically git-excluded. Paths must start with /, ./, or ~ to be recognized as local (otherwise treated as git URL/shorthand). Local sources skip cloning and caching — overlays are read directly from the filesystem. Use source list and source remove to manage both global git sources and repo-local sources.

Command: switch

Added

Add --dry-run support to switch command

The switch command now supports --dry-run to preview what would change without making modifications, consistent with apply, remove, restore, and update.

Command: sync

Fixed

Skip non-syncable overlays gracefully in --all mode

sync --all no longer fails when only locally-applied overlays are present. The overlay repo manager is now lazily initialized, only created when a syncable overlay is encountered. Local and GitHub overlays are skipped with a warning message.

v0.10.1 - 2026-03-05

Command: sync

Fixed

Fix sync <name> using wrong org/repo for overlays applied via upstream fallback

When syncing a single overlay by name in a fork repository, the sync command detected the org/repo from the git remote (e.g., alexvy86/FluidFramework) instead of using the org/repo saved in the overlay state (e.g., microsoft/FluidFramework). This caused sync to fail with "does not exist in overlay repo" because the fork's org/repo path doesn't exist in the overlay repo. Now uses the org/repo from the saved state, matching the behavior of sync --all.

v0.10.0 - 2026-03-05

Command: apply

Added

Auto-detect configured source when applying via GitHub URL

When applying an overlay via a GitHub URL that matches a configured source, resolve it as an overlay repo (editable and syncable) instead of a read-only GitHub source. URLs with an org/repo/name subpath redirect to three-part resolution; bare repo URLs use interactive browse mode with the matched source.

Command: sync

Fixed

Fix sync <name> failing for GitHub-sourced overlays that match a configured source

The single-name sync path was missing the try_upgrade_github_source() call that was added to sync --all, edit, and edit add in #171. This caused GitHub-sourced overlays to be rejected as non-syncable instead of being lazily upgraded to editable overlay repo sources.

Fixed

Improve error display and add SIGPIPE handling

Fixed error output formatting to use Display instead of Debug format. Added SIGPIPE signal handling so piped output to commands like head exits cleanly without "Broken pipe" errors.

v0.9.2 - 2026-03-04

Command: edit

Changed

Split edit into edit add and edit remove subcommands

The --add and --remove flags used greedy num_args = 1.. parsing, which consumed trailing arguments and required the overlay name to appear before any flags. This was confusing and the help text couldn't convey the constraint clearly. The edit command now uses proper subcommands:

repoverlay edit add my-overlay file1.txt file2.txt repoverlay edit remove my-overlay oldfile.txt repoverlay edit my-overlay # interactive file selection repoverlay edit # select overlay then edit interactively

Running edit with no overlay name now presents an interactive overlay picker (auto-selects when only one overlay is applied). The old --add/--remove/--interactive flags still work but are hidden from help and print a deprecation warning.

v0.9.1 - 2026-03-04

Command: edit

Fixed

Fix edit --add dropping existing git exclude entries

When adding files to an applied overlay, the git exclude section was rewritten with only the newly added files, silently removing entries for previously managed files. This caused those files to reappear in git status after the add operation. Rebuilt the full exclude list from overlay state, matching the pattern already used by edit --remove.

Changed

Clarify that overlay NAME must precede --add/--remove flags

The --add and --remove flags accept multiple values and greedily consume trailing arguments. Running edit --add file.txt name fails because name is parsed as a second file. Updated help text to document the required argument order.

v0.9.0 - 2026-03-02

Added

Always sync cache and overlay repos before operations

All commands that read from the overlay repo or GitHub cache now pull the
latest by default. The --update flag is replaced with --no-update to
opt out (e.g., for offline use). Affected commands: apply, browse,
list, switch, create, and sync.

BREAKING: The --update flag has been removed. Use --no-update to
skip syncing.

v0.8.0 - 2026-02-28

Command: apply

Added

Add interactive conflict resolution mode

Use --interactive (-i) to be prompted for each file conflict during apply, restore, and update. When a conflict is detected, you can choose to overwrite the file, skip it, view a diff, or abort the operation. The --force flag can also be written as --overwrite.

Prompt to save source on first use

When apply resolves a username or owner/repo reference for the first time, it now prompts the user to save it as a configured source for future use. The prompt is skipped if the source is already configured or in non-interactive mode.

Command: browse

Added

Allow browsing without a configured source

browse now accepts an optional source argument (GitHub username, owner/repo, or URL) to fetch and browse overlays without adding a persistent source. Existing behavior using configured sources is unchanged when no argument is provided.

Command: create

Added

Auto-apply overlay after creation (#144)

The create command now automatically applies the overlay to the source
repository after creating it. Files are replaced with symlinks, overlay
state is saved, and git exclude is updated. Both local and overlay-repo
modes are supported. Dry-run mode skips the apply step.

Command: edit

Fixed

Interactive edit handles non-OverlayRepo sources correctly (#148)

add_files_to_overlay is now source-type-aware and includes a rollback
mechanism. Local overlays copy files to the overlay directory; GitHub
overlays are rejected with a clear error. If any operation fails mid-way,
all completed operations are rolled back to prevent partial state.

Command: update

Fixed

Fix update showing incorrect source type for overlay repo sources (#145)

Running update on overlays from an overlay repo incorrectly displayed
messages meant for local sources. Each source type now shows the correct
label and update behavior.

Fixed

Fix apply and sync failing for local overlay sources (#143)

Overlays from local directory sources were incorrectly handled through the
remote overlay path, causing apply and dry-run to fail. Local sources now
resolve correctly.

Changed

Remove legacy overlay_repo config support (#79)

The deprecated overlay_repo configuration field and automatic migration
from the old format have been removed. Users must use the sources
configuration format. The OverlayRepoConfig struct is retained for use
by the sources system.

Remove deprecated commands: add, publish, list, create-local (#84)

Removed hidden/deprecated command variants that have been replaced:
add (use edit --add), publish (use create), list (use browse),
and create-local (use create --local).

v0.7.0 - 2026-02-18

Command: apply

Added

Show already-applied overlays as disabled in the overlay picker

The interactive overlay picker now displays already-applied overlays as dimmed, non-selectable entries so users can see what's active without leaving the selection UI.

Command: browse

Added

Add interactive overlay selection and apply to browse command

When running in an interactive terminal, browse now presents a multi-select picker to choose overlays and applies them directly. Already-applied overlays appear disabled. Non-interactive mode (piped output or --no-interactive) continues to list overlays as text. Also adds --target, --no-interactive, and --dry-run flags.

Command: remove

Added

Replace numbered list with multi-select picker for overlay removal

The remove command now uses an interactive multi-select picker with keyboard navigation, search filtering, and select-all toggling, replacing the old numbered-list prompt. Multiple overlays can be removed at once.

Command: status

Added

Add --json flag to status command for machine-readable output

Outputs applied overlay state as structured JSON including overlay name, source info, applied timestamp, and per-file status (ok or missing). Useful for scripting and CI integration (e.g. repoverlay status --json | jq ...). Works with --name filter to output a single overlay.

Add --quiet flag to status command for exit-code-only checks

Exits with code 0 if overlays are applied, 1 if none. Produces no output. Useful for conditional scripts (e.g. if repoverlay status -q; then ...).

Command: sync

Added

Add --all flag to sync all applied overlays at once

Only syncs overlays sourced from the overlay repo. Overlays from local or GitHub sources are skipped with a warning. Supports --dry-run.

Fixed

Fix sync --all skipping overlays from the overlay repo GitHub source

Overlays applied via two-part browse mode (e.g., repoverlay apply owner/repo-overlays) are stored with a GitHub source type rather than an OverlayRepo source type. The sync command now detects these by checking if the GitHub URL matches a configured overlay source and the subpath contains a valid org/repo/name reference.

Added

Auto-filter overlays by current repository

When browsing or selecting overlays, the current repository is auto-detected from git remotes (origin and upstream). Matching overlays are shown first; non-matching overlays are labeled "different repo" in the interactive picker. Text listing filters to matching overlays by default. Use --show-all to see all overlays.

Add documentation site at repoverlay.tylerbutler.com

Full docs site with installation instructions, quick start guide, concept explanations (overlay repos, sources, fork inheritance, configuration), usage guides, and CLI reference.

Changed

Rationalize command vocabulary and deprecate old commands before 1.0

Several commands have been renamed or consolidated for consistency. The old names still work but are hidden from help output and print a deprecation warning. They will be removed in 1.0.

listbrowse — Browse available overlays from the overlay repository. Flags (--filter, --update) are unchanged.

create-localcreate --output <path> — Local overlay creation is now a mode of the create command. Pass --output to write to a local directory instead of the overlay repository; the overlay name becomes optional in this mode.

cache clearcache remove --all — Cache removal is unified under cache remove. Use --all to clear everything, or pass a specific owner/repo to remove a single cached repository.

publishcreate — Overlay publishing is now handled by create, which auto-detects the target repository from the git remote or accepts an explicit org/repo/name path.

addedit --add — Adding files to an existing overlay is now a flag on the edit command. Use --add (repeatable) to include new files and --remove to drop files in a single invocation.

Security

Reject symlinks that escape the overlay source directory during copy

Malicious overlay repositories could include symlinks pointing outside their directory tree (e.g., to /etc/passwd). The copy operation now checks each entry with symlink_metadata and rejects any symlink whose target resolves outside the source root. Also adds a recursion depth limit (64) to prevent stack overflow from circular symlinks.

Validate overlay repository URL scheme before cloning

Only https://, ssh://, and git@ URLs are now accepted for overlay repository sources. This prevents file:// and other local schemes from being used to read files from the host filesystem. URLs starting with - are also rejected to prevent git flag injection.

Validate overlay path components against directory traversal

The org, repo, and overlay name components used to construct filesystem paths are now validated to reject .., /, \, and leading . characters, preventing path traversal attacks via crafted overlay references.

v0.6.0 - 2026-02-16

Command: apply

Added

  • Deep merge .json files during overlay application

    Resolve .json file conflicts automatically instead of failing. When --merge is enabled (via CLI flag or REPOVERLAY_MERGE env var), JSON files are recursively deep merged — objects merge key-by-key with overlay values winning, arrays and scalars use overlay values directly, and type mismatches are logged with full dotted key paths. Merged files are tracked with a new Merged link type in overlay state for correct cleanup on remove/update.

Fixed

  • Reload overlay targets after removing a conflicting overlay during re-apply

    When --force removed an existing overlay to make room for a re-apply, the in-memory target set was stale, causing subsequent conflict checks in the same batch to see phantom conflicts. The target set is now reloaded after each forced removal.

Command: edit

Added

  • Add edit command for modifying existing overlays

    New edit command with --add, --remove, and --interactive flags for modifying applied overlays. --add adds files to an overlay, --remove removes specific files without removing the whole overlay, and --interactive re-runs the file selection UI with currently-applied files pre-selected. The existing add command is deprecated in favor of edit --add.

Changed

  • edit defaults to interactive file selection when no flags given

    Running repoverlay edit <name> without --add, --remove, or --interactive in an interactive terminal now launches interactive file re-selection automatically. Non-interactive environments are unaffected.

Command: remove

Changed

  • remove defaults to interactive selection when no arguments given

    Running repoverlay remove in an interactive terminal now launches the interactive overlay selection instead of printing a usage error. Non-interactive environments (CI, piped stdin, TERM=dumb) are unaffected.

Security

  • Reject git refs starting with - to prevent flag injection

    Source URLs with refs like --upload-pack=evil could be passed through to git commands as flags. GitRef::from_str now rejects any ref beginning with - and with_ref_override propagates the error instead of panicking via .unwrap().

  • Validate overlay mapping destinations against path traversal

    Overlay configs with mappings like secret.txt = ../etc/passwd could write files outside the target repository. Mapping destinations are now canonicalized and verified to stay within the target directory before any files are copied. Symlinks in overlay sources are also skipped to prevent symlink-based escapes.
