Create configuration groups as you see fit. All directories aside from the
base
directory should contain a second directory in them representing a
sub-configuration group.
For example you could have a machines/desktop
configuration group for
your desktop and a machines/laptop
configuration group for your laptop.
You could also for example have a common/develop
for configuration files
specifically used for development tools.
Organize your dotfiles into their respective configuration groups.
Execute source init-dots
to install the dots manager and initialize your
dotfiles into ther directories.
Execute dots groups set [list of groups here]
then dots install
.
Enjoy your organized dotfiles!
While not required, it's recommended to read through the dots README.
Don't forget to edit this README to be specific to your dotfiles!
