I very recently put some effort into tidying up my dotfiles, and have a brief writeup at https://chatwithsysop.com/blog/2022/12/31/dotfiles-cleanup https://chatwithsysop.com/blog/2022/12/31/dotfiles-cleanup (none of this was done with the academic rigor required to withstand a deconstruction by HN, it is just a log of one person's experience with a weekend project).
I chose to use yadm (http://yadm.io http://yadm.io) for no particular reasons beyond that I found it first, and it seemed reasonable. It's more just a wrapper around putting GIT_DIR elsewhere.
- ericvsmith 4y agoI can't say enough good things about yadm. I found a yadm bug under Cygwin years ago, and the author had a patch for me within a day. I'll grant that Cygwin is an odd platform. I use yadm to manage dotfiles across Windows (via Cygwin), macOS, and Linux.
