Show HN: Manage Dotfiles with Stow

Also consider https://chezmoi.io/ which has many advantages over Stow+git (e.g. manage files that vary across machines, password manager integration, transparent encryption, create real files not symlinks, dry-run and diff modes, and many more).

By the way, the link to the install instructions is broken on the front page, however the sidebar link works.

looks like a great project, but it’s more complicated than dotstow
