No package manager.
Instead, you configure a set of specifications of what files from which packages to include on your system, and the build system writes the resulting filesystem tree into a git repository. This can then be merged into /, or pulled from another machine.
The first command pulls updates from the source repository, the second command builds a new filesystem tree and commits it, the third command merges that commit into your / repository.
