This is the home of Mike Richman's dotfiles.
In my work and play to-date, I've tried or looked into a few schemes for managing my configurations. Since late 2019, I've been maintaining this repository with a custom [install.py]. It gets the job done.
-
rsync. Yeah, just... copy working configurations wherever they need to be. Not great.
-
vcsh. Either this was too heavy, or I wasn't ready for it when I tried it, or both.
-
rsync again.
-
[thoughtbot dotfiles]. I haven't actually tried this, but looking over it a bit was enough to convince me that plain-old github is enough to do the job.
-
chezmoi. Haven't tried it yet, but if I ever do move on from my custom install script, this is probably where I'll go next.
