Dotfiles
Personal dotfiles repo at ~/.dotfiles, managed by the dotfiles-cli tool (dotfiles on $PATH).
For commands and flags, run dotfiles --help (and dotfiles <command> --help) — it's self-describing. Add --json to any command for machine-readable output.
Mapping
~/.dotfiles/dotfiles.json maps source paths in $HOME to mirrored paths under ~/.dotfiles/config/<tool>/. Entries are files or directories (trailing / = directory, tracked recursively). Adding a file inside an already-mapped directory needs no manifest change — just save.
Workflow when editing a tracked file
- Edit the live file in
$HOME(not the copy under~/.dotfiles/config/). dotfiles status— confirm drift.dotfiles save— local → repo. Prefer scoping with--tool/--file(seedotfiles save --help) to avoid touching unrelated drift.- In
~/.dotfiles, branch and make an atomic commit.
The reverse direction (repo → live) is dotfiles install.
Conventions (not in --help)
- Atomic commits, never
git add -A. An unscopedsavesyncs every drifted tracked file, sogit statusmay surface unrelated changes the user made earlier. Stage only the files for the current logical change — one change per commit. - If
installvssavedirection is ambiguous (unexpected drift, possible data loss), ask the user which side is authoritative. - No commit attribution. No
Co-authored-by, no agent signatures.
