This repository contains my personal dotfiles for various applications and tools, managed using GNU Stow.

This dotfiles repository currently includes configurations for:

• vim: Vim editor configuration
• zsh: Z shell configuration
• git: Git configuration

Before using these dotfiles, you need to install GNU Stow on Arch Linux:

sudo pacman -S stow

1. Clone this repository to your home directory:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles
cd ~/dotfiles

2. Run the install script to symlink all configurations:

./install.sh

If you only want to install specific configurations, you can use stow directly:

stow -t ~ vim    # Only install vim configuration
stow -t ~ zsh    # Only install zsh configuration
stow -t ~ git    # Only install git configuration

GNU Stow creates symbolic links from the files in this repository to your home directory. For example:

• ~/dotfiles/vim/.vimrc → ~/.vimrc
• ~/dotfiles/zsh/.zshrc → ~/.zshrc
• ~/dotfiles/git/.gitconfig → ~/.gitconfig

To remove all symlinks created by these dotfiles:

./uninstall.sh

To remove specific configurations:

stow -t ~ -D vim    # Remove vim configuration
stow -t ~ -D zsh    # Remove zsh configuration
stow -t ~ -D git    # Remove git configuration

To add new configurations:

1. Create a new directory for the application
2. Place configuration files in the directory, maintaining the same structure as they would appear in your home directory
3. Add the new package name to the PACKAGES array in install.sh and uninstall.sh
