My development flow revolves around using vim inside a tmux session. Naturally using these two tools I have developed over time a lot of config stored in the dot files. I have found a great tutorial (as linked) which teaches a technique for moving them across computers. From a technical perspective I'm sorted but how do I do the move in a way that isn't going to cause red flags from more security conscious employers?

I know how to move dot files between computers but how do I move them across companies?

Technically speaking: Have you tried chezmoi? [0]

IP speaking: You can make the code public in your repository, but keep a private set of scripts that you won't move between companies. This also helps reducing the information you're leaking about the company you work for, to avoid stuff like [1].
