I've been using chezmoi + Syncthing for about a year now. I don't want to have to manually git commit + push + pull everytime I change a config file, so I just sync the chezmoi directory between all my devices (around 8 total). I also have a dedicated VM that I use as a central Syncthing node, and on there I have a script that pushes the chezmoi directory to my Gitea instance on an hourly basis. I then ignore the git directory in Syncthing so only the VM has the git repo and the other devices don't waste space storing/syncing it.
Maybe once every 2-3 months I will need to go back and find a previous version of a file.
