Sick of doing manual dotfile synchronisation, and not wanting to have to install yet another tool on every new device, I wrote a bash script that does two simple things: stores the dotfiles you specify in a git repository, and installs dotfiles stored in a specified git repository.
I believe the most innovative part of the tool is its simplicity, in that the dotfiles are stored in a format that still allows them to be easily traversed and edited within the repository, particularly when [using GitHub for storage][1]. In fact, many operations that are expected to be used rarely (compared to storing and fetching), such as deletion, have been delegated to GitHub for simplicity.
Disclaimer: I am [cross-posting][2] `dot` from Reddit in the hopes of gaining more feedback. Please let me know what you think!
