Dotfiles

Personal dotfiles managed with GNU Stow.

What's Inside?

Each top-level directory is a stow package whose contents are symlinked into $HOME.

Package	Description
bash	Shell config with modular .bashrc.d/ sourcing
bin	Custom scripts in ~/.local/bin/
git	Git config and commit message template
mise	Dev tool version manager config
nvim	LazyVim-based Neovim setup
tmux	Terminal multiplexer config
wsl	WSL2-specific shell config and interop settings

Directories prefixed with _ (e.g. _archive/) are never stowed.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/mothinx/.dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
make

Uninstallation

make delete

WSL2 Setup

This repo targets Ubuntu on WSL2. The wsl/ package provides:

• wslrc — sourced automatically by .bashrc.d/; sets BROWSER, DOCKER_HOST, umask, etc.
• .wslconfig.example — reference template for C:\Users\<user>\.wslconfig (VM memory/CPU tuning).

Copy .wslconfig.example to the Windows user profile and rename to .wslconfig:

cp $env:USERPROFILE\.dotfiles\wsl\.wslconfig.example $env:USERPROFILE\.wslconfig

Archived packages

Wayland/Fedora-specific configs are preserved in _archive/ for reference but are not stowed:

• _archive/sway/ — Sway WM configuration
• _archive/waybar/ — Waybar status bar
• _archive/kitty/ — Kitty terminal (using Windows Terminal instead)
