A place for backing up my dotfiles. Be sure to clone recursively if you want to grab updated plugins / submodules included. For example, using Pathogen with Vim to manage plugins requires that the plugin to be installed are cloned to the `~/.vim/bundle/` directory. Cloning recursively allows git to clone these same nested repositories/submodules within this directory so Pathogen can handle running the Vim plugins.

These configs were created and tested on Manjaro Linux using i3wm, and should only be used on similar systems. Easiest installation is to clone repository into home directory -
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone --recursive https://github.com/shaunrd0/dot ~/dot
|
|
cd ~/dot/
|
|
stow .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you'd rather clone elsewhere -
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone --recursive https://github.com/shaunrd0/dot /path/to/dot
|
|
cd /path/to/dot/
|
|
stow -t ~ .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that the `dot/packages/` directory is for reference and is the only directory included not meant to be used with stow. If this directory is stowed there will be no real change to the system - you will still need to install the package lists manually.

`stow --adopt .` can be used to install conflicting files, but doing so will result in the loss of your local configurations. If you want to keep them, back up the conflicting files output in the error message before running this command.
