What config files have you found outside of `/etc` and `~/.config`?
- sseagull 2y agoThere’s still a few on my machine. The main ones I’ve edited: ~/.gitconfig, ~/.bashrc, ~/.bash_profile, ~/.vimrc ~/.ssh/config ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf, ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf

OTOH, all of those are easier to edit in their respective files than via a registry hack.
