You could but that  doesn't do anything other than scatter a bunch of files
on your disk that are timestamped. It doesn't meet the requirement of
documenting changes. A revision control system can do that. The
Salt/Ansible/Puppet solution will enable you to deploy the changes from the
revision control system.
