# How I store my dotfiles. I use a bare repository to sync my dotfiles and set it up as follows: ``` git init --bare $HOME/.cfg alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.cfg/ --work-tree=$HOME' config config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no # The add and commit below are just an example of adding a file to the repo config add .config/nvim/init.lua config commit -m "Added init.lua" git remote add origin REMOTE_URL git push origin master ``` To install them from mine or someone else's git repo do the following: ``` echo ".cfg" >> .gitignore git clone --bare REMOTE-GIT-REPO-URL $HOME/.cfg alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.cfg/ --work-tree=$HOME' config config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no config checkout ```
