Prerequisites

To install GNU Stow and ansible on Debian/Ubuntu like systems, follow these steps:

sudo apt install stow ansible git

Install tools using ansible-pull

ansible-pull \
  --url https://github.com/import-benjamin/.dotfiles.git \
  --checkout v1.1.0 \
  --inventory localhost, \
  --connection local \
  playbook.yml

Install configuration files

Use stow to create symlinks in your home directory for specific configurations.

stow $TOOL_DIRECTORY

This command will create a symlink for $TOOL_DIRECTORY in your home directory, pointing to ~/dotfiles/bash/$TOOL_DIRECTORY.

Remove configuration files

To remove symlinks: Use the -D option. For example, to remove symlinks for Vim configurations:

stow -D vim
