# dotfiles

## stow

I use [GNU Stow](https://www.gnu.org/software/stow/) to manage dotfiles in the `stow` directory. Examples below:

### Track `.file` in `dir` (typically `~`):

```shell
$ mkdir program
$ touch program/.file
$ stow --adopt -nvt dir program # verify command is safe and symlinks .file
$ stow --adopt -vt dir program
```

### Untrack zsh files:

```shell
$ stow -Dvt ~ zsh
```

## manual

`dconf-cinnamon.ini` is exported via ```dconf dump /org/cinnamon/ > file.ini``` and can be loaded with ```dconf load / < file.ini```
This is because `~/.config/dconf` isn't plaintext. See [here](https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/wiki/Backing-up-and-restoring-your-cinnamon-settings-(dconf)) for more details.
