This repository contains my dotfiles, which are configuration files for various programs. To easily manage these dotfiles, I use GNU Stow.
To install GNU Stow, follow these steps:
-
Open a terminal.
-
Run the following command to install GNU Stow:
# For Debian-based systems (e.g., Ubuntu) sudo apt-get install stow # For Red Hat-based systems (e.g., Fedora) sudo dnf install stow # For macOS (using Homebrew) brew install stow
Once GNU Stow is installed, you can symlink the dotfiles to your home directory using the following command:
cd ~/dotfiles
stow .
This will create symlinks for all the dotfiles in the repository. Thus, you can easily version control your dotfiles using Git. Credit goes to Dreams of Anatomy
