This contains various configuration files (dotfiles) for setting up a new Linux machine. It largely assume an Arch Linux based system.
These dotfiles are managed / installed with GNU Stow.
Running stow ${PKGNAME} will symlink everything from ./$PKGNAME to where it belongs.
I use submodules to include dependencies. The best way to get the source is the following
git clone --recursive https://github.com/AstroBarker/dotfilesThese are largely notes for me to document things I might use and why.
