dotfiles

Personal stow-managed dotfiles.

Structure

bash/ bin/ claude/ css/ gh/ git/ obsidian/ panache/ positron/ R/ Rstudio/ syncthing/   # config stow packages
prek.toml                  # pre-commit hooks

└── tests/       # bats test suites for bin/ scripts and claude/ hooks

Packages follow stow conventions: each top-level dir maps its tree relative to ~ (bash/.bashrc → ~/.bashrc, bin/.local/bin/ → ~/.local/bin/).

Bootstrap

sudo apt install -y stow
git clone https://github.com/hebstr/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles
cd ~/dotfiles
stow -R -t ~ bash bin claude css gh git obsidian panache positron R Rstudio syncthing
npm --prefix css/.local/share/css-gate ci

The npm ci step is required, not optional: the css package ships pinned package.json + package-lock.json but its node_modules/ is gitignored, so ~/.local/bin/{stylelint,prettier} dangle until it runs, and symlinks-check fails. Thereafter sys-update css-toolchain keeps that toolchain current.

Hooks are run via prek (prek install, prek run -a).
