Usage

Editing Configs

Configs in ~/.config/ are symlinks to ~/.dotfiles/.config/.

nvim ~/.config/niri/config.kdl
# changes are tracked in ~/.dotfiles

Tracking New Configs

Under ~/.config/ (auto-detected)

# move config directory into dotfiles repo
mv ~/.config/foo ~/.dotfiles/.config/

# apply symlinks (auto-detects all folders in .config/)
./install-dotfiles.sh

Outside ~/.config/ (custom paths like ~/.gitconfig)

# move file or directory into repo
mv ~/.gitconfig ~/.dotfiles/.gitconfig

# add entry to CUSTOM_LINKS in install-dotfiles.sh:
#   CUSTOM_LINKS=(
#       ".local/share/noctalia:$HOME/.local/share/noctalia"
#       ".gitconfig:$HOME/.gitconfig"
#   )

# apply symlinks
./install-dotfiles.sh
