How do I auto update settings on my obs profile?

Hi guys! Very new at this, so please have patience :)

I recently created a github repo with exported OBS settings to save these settings incase it somehow gets lost...
Is there a way to automatically update settings in OBS when the code in github gets changed?

I hope this comes across clearly! :)

Github as backup for Windows app configuration files that act like a blackbox, and that are ever-changing, seem to me a bit complex for a simple backup/restore job. Just set your favorite backup app to backup the Windows user profile directory. You can also simply use File History from Windows for this and include the %APPDATA%\obs-studio directory in the backup.

You also have a working cloud sync app that comes with Windows with a bit of free space - that's Onedrive. Set up some kind of copy job in Windows Task Scheduler to copy %APPDATA%\obs-studio to your Onedrive-synced directory regularly.

Thanks so much! Reason for this is that I work with a team, running OBS on multiple machines and it would be great to synchronize app configurations on all devices instantly...
