## Requirements
* GNU `stow` [[1][1]]: to easily symlink subsets of config directories and/or files.
## Usage
```shell
git clone [email protected]:dtgoitia/dotfiles.git
cd dotfiles
# Pick the desired config
stow tmux/
```
The example above will symlink the content inside of `~/dotfiles/tmux/` from `~/`.
See [here][2] for an example (video).
`stow` will not create symlinks pointing to any path matching the RegEx patterns in the `~/.stow-global-ignore` and `.stow-local-ignore` files ([docs][3]).
Use `.gitignore` files to avoid saving directories or paths to the `dotfiles` repository.
### Cheat sheet
* Remove symlinks: `stow --delete my_package`
* Dry run: `stow --simulate`
* Verbose mode: `stow --verbose`
* Very verbose mode: `stow -vvvvv`
