# dots
> A bare repo resembling your `$HOME`
## Usage
Clone to a temporary directory:
```sh
git clone --separate-git-dir=$HOME/dots.git \
https://github.com/mvllow/dots.git \
dots-tmp
```
Copy working tree snapshot to the home directory, then delete the temporary directory:
```sh
rsync --recursive --verbose --exclude '.git' dots-tmp/ $HOME/
rm -rf dots-tmp
```
Optionally, add an alias to use git with this new structure:
```sh
alias .git='git --git-dir=$HOME/dots.git/ --work-tree=$HOME'
```
Optionally, hide untracked files—you will have to manually add new files:
```sh
.git config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no
```
Change upstream from https to ssh:
```sh
.git remote set-url origin [email protected]:mvllow/dots.git
```
