I’m all in favor of tools that automate dotfiles and make system configuration simpler for folks just getting started, but what benefit is there over using bash scripts
(appologies for no rtfm. Conversation is more fun anyway 🙂)
Ironically, stowman is a bash script whose only purpose is to wrap git and stow so that you only need a couple of very simple commands in order to manage dotfiles, the automation (i.e. the synchronization task) doesn’t seem to be a part of stowman.
