For those of you that use docker, how do you make sure your docker-compose.yml (and possibly .env) files stay current with the project’s ongoing updates? I’m sure there’s an easier way than what I’m doing which is manually getting the latest ones and checking the diffs in vscodium. And I’m sure some git magic already takes care of this but I’ve been slow in learning git beyond the VERY basics. Thanks!


This is new:

And
Discovered in the latest Self Host Weekly:
https://selfh.st/weekly/2025-11-28/
I have not tried it myself tho.
I too saw PatchPanda on selfh.st and it is on my watch list. The only thing holding me back is that it isn’t out of beta yet. So, I’m waiting on other selfhosters to plow that field before I deploy. It does look like it would solve a lot of problems tho.
Hmmm I’ve heard of it but haven’t tried it. I’ll dip my toe, thanks!
