The `dnf-config-manager` command is a utility for managing DNF (Dandified Yum) repositories and configuration options. It simplifies the process of enabling, disabling, adding, and modifying DNF repositories. This tool provides an easy way to add or modify repository configurations directly from the command line. It supports setting properties like the repository's name, base URL, enabling/disabling, gpgcheck, and more. Additionally, it can add repositories directly from a URL.
The `dnf-config-manager` significantly streamlines repository management compared to manually editing configuration files. It also supports setting arbitrary DNF configuration options.

Changes made using `dnf-config-manager` directly affect the repository configuration files. Ensure proper backups if necessary.

Add a repository:
`dnf config-manager --add-repo https://example.com/repo.repo`

Enable a repository:
`dnf config-manager --set-enabled myrepo`

Disable gpgcheck:
`dnf config-manager --setopt myrepo.gpgcheck=0`

Repository configuration files are typically located in the `/etc/yum.repos.d/` directory. dnf-config-manager modifies these files.

The `dnf-config-manager` command was introduced as part of the DNF package manager ecosystem. It builds upon the functionality of `yum-config-manager` from previous versions of YUM, providing a modern and improved interface for repository management. Its primary goal is to simplify the process of adding, modifying, and managing DNF repositories. The development of dnf-config-manager is closely tied to the evolution of the DNF package manager as a replacement for YUM. It inherits some concepts from yum-config-manager but has been redesigned to work with DNF's architecture.
