Managing dotfiles

Open a new terminal or source the rc file and run dot to get an overview of all added dotfiles. (M means the file is modified but not staged)

> dot
 M   /.bashrc                                                 Fix bashrc fzf import
     /.config/bat/config                                      Change bat theme
     /.config/nano/nanorc                                     Add nano rc file
...
...

dot supports all git operations, for example,

• dot add to stage a file
• dot commit -m '' to commit the files
• dot push to push to remote
• dot lg to view log and so on
