Show HN: Mntn v2.0 – CLI for system maintenance, backups, and dotfile management

https://github.com/alexandretrotel/mntn
1•alexandretrotel•1mo ago
I've just released *mntn v2.0*, a Rust-powered CLI tool designed to make system maintenance and configuration management simple, safe, and reproducible.

mntn automates backups of your package lists (brew, npm, cargo, etc.) and config files. It also manages dotfile symlinks, cleans system junk, and sets up scheduled maintenance tasks. It’s cross-platform (macOS, Linux, Windows support) and registry-driven for full transparency and customization. Windows support is currently "experimental".

I built mntn to mainly solve the pain of migrating machines, keeping configs in sync, and maintaining a clean dev environment.

*Install:*

```bash cargo install mntn ```

Check the docs here: https://github.com/trotelalexandre/mntn
