Use stow --dotfiles to install
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The recent addition of the `--dotfiles` option allows me to name the
files in a way so that they are not hidden by the shell. However, as
noted in the README, Stow does not yet support using this option with
subdirectories (see <aspiers/stow#33>), so
these have not been converted to use the `dot-*` names.

This repository is organized to be used with [GNU Stow](https://www.gnu.org/software/stow/).

```
git clone https://github.com/sirhc/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
stow zsh; # for example; or bc, tig, ...
> git clone https://github.com/sirhc/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
> cd ~/.dotfiles
> stow -v --dotfiles zsh # for example; or bc, tig, ...
```

At the time of writing, Stow does not support using `--dotfiles` with
subdirectories (see <https://github.com/aspiers/stow/issues/33>), so these
have not been converted to use the `dot-*` names.
