Important: This repository must be cloned directly into your home directory for GNU Stow to work correctly. Stow will create symlinks from your home directory to the files in this repository.
- Clone this repository into your home directory:
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/SrFrancia/dotfiles.git
cd dotfiles- Install requirements (requires root):
sudo ./install-requirements.sh- Create symlinks:
./create-symlinks.shThe create-symlinks.sh script uses GNU Stow to create symbolic links from your home directory to the configuration files in this repository. This allows you to keep all your dotfiles organized in one directory while maintaining the correct file structure in your home directory.
