I want to keep my configuration in git. I made the /config
folder a repository and created a keypair to auth into github. The problem is that the home folder seems to be only in RAM and so when I reboot my raspberry, the keypair is lost.
Is there an “official” way to keep my keypair across restarts? Even if I placed the keys into a “permanent” directory, I would have to create a /root/.ssh/config
file describing where the keys are (and that would have to be recreated after restarts). I am looking for a solution that would just work.
Off-topic related question to saving configuration in git - is it not possible to have folders as symlinks? E.g. /config
, /data
etc. If I create a symlink in their place (so that I can have all the settings in one git repo), home assistant fails to start because it apparently cannot read the config file from there.
