# Gilt



Gilt is a tool which aims to make repo management, manageable.  Gilt

clones repositories at a particular version, then overlays the repository to

the provided destination.  An alternate approach to "vendoring".

What makes Gilt interesting, is the ability to overlay particular files and/or

directories from the specified repository to given destinations. Originally,

this was quite helpful for those using Ansible, since libraries, plugins, and

playbooks are often shared, but Ansible's [Galaxy][] has no mechanism to handle

this.  Currently, this is proving useful for overlaying [Helm charts][].
