re-add [target...]

Re-add modified files in the target state, preserving any encrypted_ attributes. chezmoi will not overwrite templates, and all entries that are not files are ignored. Directories are recursed into by default.

If no targets are specified then all modified files are re-added. If one or more targets are given then only those targets are re-added.

Common flags

-x, --exclude types

--8<-- "common-flags/exclude.md"

-i, --include types

--8<-- "common-flags/include.md"

--re-encrypt

Re-encrypt encrypted files.

-r, --recursive

Examples

chezmoi re-add

Notes

!!! hint

If you want to re-add a single file unconditionally, use `chezmoi add --force` instead.
