There are tools to manage it for you that I’m sure someone will come along and mention, but I’ve got a repo I check out at `~/.home`, then a shell script they just symlinks everything into place.

So .bashrc is a symlink to ~/.home/.bashrc, ~/.config/nvim to ~/.home/.config/nvim, etc.

It’s simple and only relies on having something sh-compatible available so portable now and in the future.

To manage per-system tweaks, I have places that include an additional file based on hostname. For example my .bashrc has something like:

    if [ -f “$HOME/.bashrc.$HOSTNAME” ]; then
        source “$HOME/.bashrc.$HOSTNAME”
    if

Which will include a bashrc file specific to that host if it exists.

Been working well for me for… a decade now?
