dots

Personal dotfiles managed with GNU Stow.

Each top-level directory is a stow package whose contents mirror the layout of $HOME.

Packages

Package	Installs
shell	~/.config/shell/common.sh, shared by every shell below
bash-suse	~/.bashrc for openSUSE
bash-ubuntu	~/.bashrc for Ubuntu/Debian
zsh	~/.zshrc
git	~/.gitconfig
nvim	LazyVim config in ~/.config/nvim
code	VS Code settings.json

bash-suse and bash-ubuntu both install ~/.bashrc, so stow only the one matching the machine — stow */ fails on the conflict.

Each shell package sources ~/.config/shell/common.sh when it exists, so stow shell alongside them. That file holds the setup they share (EDITOR, PATH, brew, gcloud, nvm, direnv) and selects the bash or zsh variant of each hook at runtime.

Install

git clone git@github.com:jedimasterjonny/dots.git ~/dots
cd ~/dots
stow shell git nvim code
stow bash-suse  # or bash-ubuntu, and/or zsh

To remove a package:

stow -D zsh

Notes

.stowrc sets --no-folding, so stow links individual files rather than whole directories. Files a tool writes back into a stowed directory (lazy-lock.json and lazyvim.json in ~/.config/nvim) therefore land in a real directory outside the repo, rather than showing up as untracked files here.

Neovim plugins are deliberately not pinned: lazy-lock.json stays out of the repo, so a fresh machine installs each plugin at its latest commit. Run :Lazy sync to update.
