I used stow for a long time, then tried Ansible, but eventually settled into good old Make.
`make dotfiles` just creates a bunch of symlinks, takes 5 minutes, all good and happy. Everything is modular, declarative, simple. Never looked back.
- lucideer 3mo agoI think this is likely a part of the friction for a lot of people - symlinks. There's roughly two main ways to manage dotfiles: - symlink - copy & sync The 2nd (what chez moi does) is pretty hard to get right from a UX perspective.
