# dotfiles

TL;DR:

``` shell
git submodule update --init --recursive
./install-all
```

Git submodules btw.  This utilises [GNU stow](https://www.gnu.org/software/stow/).  In case you don't know how to use
it:

``` shell
stow -t ~ -R <pkg>
```

So, you can do stuff like:

``` shell
stow -t ~ -R environment
stow -t ~ -R zsh
```

Or simply:

``` shell
stow -t ~ -R *
```

Note that this repo contains a lot of dotfiles (files named with . in front).
This might make them be invisible with `ls` :).

## Important notes

Before stowing anything, you should probably run `./init-skel` to make sure some generic directories don't end up linked
to this repo.

After stowing `emacs`, make sure `.emacs.d` doesn't exist.  Kill all active emacs sessions (incl. daemons) and
`rm -fr ~/.emacs ~/.emacs.el ~/.emacs.d` (of course, first make sure they don't contain anything important).  Then start
a new Emacs session and check whether any of them have been recreated.  If yes, there's some issue.
