lnk --config home/.config/lnk/config.json createThis repository uses lnk, a Go-based dotfile management tool with the following features:
- Fast execution - Written in Go for improved performance over shell scripts
- File-level and directory-level linking - Links individual files by default, directories when specified
- Adopt/orphan files - Easily add or remove files from version control
- Dual repositories - Separate public and private configuration repos
- Git integration - Automatically respects
.gitignorepatterns - Zero dependencies - Pure Go implementation using only the standard library
See the full lnk documentation for detailed usage.
