Concept for tracking changes

• Create new commit (if possible)
• If force is unset: Diff system's files against current state by copying them into the current state branch
• Then, diff the package state against the state branch by dumping it
• Else, or if no diff, continue
• Copy normal config files into correct directories
• Render and copy renderables
• Retrieve explicitly installed packages and remove those that are not present in goal and install those that are not present in current state

Ideas

• function to collect new configs
• config options for users and groups
• presets for things like desktops (like Hyprland)
• config options for the template rendering
• config options for themes
• grub config
• Dynamic selection of more configs (i.e. require syntax)
• Own config syntax?
• Autocompletion
