Hey guys! Is there a way for me to force apps to treat e.g. $HOME/.config/ as their default directory to look for settings? I want to clear up my home directory because its getting quite messy and I don’t even have that many packages installed yet.

Also, any way that would be easy and efficient for use with git for the purpose of backing up my dotfiles.

Thanks!

    Regarding tracking your dotfiles with git, I wholeheartedly recommend yadm.

      I’ve decided on using chezmoi. It seems to be pretty good for what I need to do.
