Does anyone have experience using GNU Stow for managing dot files? I’m especially interested in using it to build a git repo to include my .vimrc file so I can sync it between hosts.
I know I’ve seen other methods, such as making your home directory a bare git repo, so you can check-in your config files without moving them. There is also the chezmoi golang project.
How do others sync .vimrc between hosts?
I prefer the portability of a simple git repo with a .gitignore for *.

I’ve never seen that in a
.gitignore, seems straightforward enough. I guess most people prefer to use the git config option, but this works!
