Solutions

• Create a directory, eg /etc/config and store all of your config files there, then use a makefile to automatically generate symlinks and install them in the appropriate locations. A command is also created for removing said symlinks. (https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/version-control-for-configuration-files.70312/)
• Using a solution like zfs/btrfs

Notes

I think one major issue with storing configs in a solution like git, is that you need to remember to push changes after every single config change. Maybe a cronjob could be configured to commit daily/weekly?
