Use GNU stow to manage the dotfiles

To install GNU Stow on mac, use homebrew

brew install stow

Install each package individually with

stow <package name>

Or all at once with

stow `ls -d */`

If you wish to also have a separate repo for other stowed files, you must include a .stow file at the root of each repo.

For example, I have a dotfiles and dotfiles-work repo. To install all the packages from both cd into those directories and issues the install all command as above.

cd ~/dotfiles
stow `ls -d */`
cd ~/dotfiles-work
stow `ls -d */`
