This post tries to explains some things about dotfiles and we will build a repository together</p> </blockquote> <p><strong>Dotfiles</strong> are configuration files typically stored in a user&rsquo;s home directory (the directory represented by the symbol <code>~</code> on Unix-based operating systems) and that begin with a dot (<code>.</code>) in their file name.</p> <p>These files are used to <strong>store</strong> settings for the various programs and tools that a user can use on their system. Files like <code>.bashrc</code>, <code>.zshrc</code>, <code>.vimrc</code> and <code>.gitconfig</code> are examples (just to name a few) that practically every user has on their machine.</p>
