To know the current configuration of packages I use for my dotfiles, you can
access them [here](https://github.com/rememberYou/dotfiles).
--------------------
### Dotfiles manager ###
I'm using [GNU Stow](https://www.gnu.org/software/stow/) a free, lightweight
dotfiles manager written in Perl to manages my dotfiles.
What's make differentiates it from other dotfiles managers is that it does
not require various Python, Ruby or Perl dependencies like most dotfiles
manager.
With that, it is easy to share files among multiple users or computers with a
few command lines.
--------------------
### Getting started ###
No matter what your Linux distribution, `stow` can easily be installed according
to your package manager:
sudo pacman -S stow
sudo apt-get install stow
For macOS users:
brew install stow
Once the installation is complete, make a clone of the repository:
git clone https://github.com/rememberYou/dotfiles.git
You can now install any configurations you wish to copy using GNU Stow:
```bash
# Make sure you are in the right directory
cd dotfiles
# Example to install the offlineimap config
stow offlineimap
# Uninstall the sway config
stow -D offlineimap
```
If you want to install all the configurations, you can do it directly
with
[`stowsym.sh`](https://github.com/rememberYou/dotfiles/blob/master/stowsym.sh):
```bash
# Change permission to execute the script
chmod +x stowsym.sh
# Installation of configuration files
./stowsym.sh -i
# Deletion of configuration files
./stowsym.sh -d
```
Easy, isn't it? For those who want to find my Emacs configuration files, they
are available: [here](https://github.com/rememberYou/.emacs.d/).
