Aegisub keeps its config.json, spellcheck dictionaries, automation scripts and recently used lists in a per-user config directory. Subtitle files themselves are .ass documents in your project folders.
Automation scripts version with the community, so archive custom ones separately. Copy the config folder and the whole timing environment moves machines.
