This is a repo to hold my configuration in a single place and save a history of how they evolve.
I created a directory to hold the configuration files where I created a git repo. The files live here but use a symlink to their respective location in order to work for their program. I will eventually move all my configuration files here and create scripts to instanciate them easily should anything happen to them.
To run this, download the repository as /home/${USER}/.dotfiles
.
- Relocate to repo directory
- Use ln command to create a symlink
ln -s <FILEPATH> <DESTINATION>
Note: The filepath has to be absolute in order for the ln command to work.
Changes done in either file will be reflected on both.
