From the README
Dotter is a dotfile manager and templater.
Dotfiles are configuration files that usually live in the home directory and start with a dot. Often times, it is desirable to have a backup of all the configurations on your system, which is why a lot of users have their dotfiles saved in a git repository, then symlinking them to their target locations using
ln -s.However, there are several issues with that barebones approach:
Dotter aims to solve all those problems by providing a flexible configuration and automatic templating or symlinking to the target locations.
Dotter is available on homebrew using
brew install dotter
