# Dotfiles

These are my dotfiles. I use a [bare Git repo] and [Nix] to manage them and

make them available across different systems.

## History

I initially commited to this repository seven years ago, and proceeded to

interminably shave the proverbial yak. I experimented, failed, and learned. I

moved from Vim to Neovim to Emacs to Neovim to VS Code and back to Neovim. I

tried different terminals and window managers. I made various improvements

around automation.

An unfortunate hallmark of this journey way was that I never really bothered

with meaningful commit mesages. Things were typically just “updated” or a

“WIP”. This was intentional—usually I was just trying to get things working the

way I wanted so I could get back to work. I was in pure experimentation mode,

curious and reckless.

Over time, I stopped relying on copy-pasted modifications and became more

thoughtful about edits and updates. I made sure I planned out and understood

what changes I was making and why, but still never put effort into the commit

messages—perhaps because of the historical precedent, or maybe because I was

always in too much of a rush.

In an effort to keep a more useful change log moving forward, I decided to wipe

out all commits in the [`main`] branch and begin the history anew. For posterity,

all commits made prior to this change are available in the [`archives`] branch.
