Hello, i would like to know how you manage your dotfiles.

Do you use some gui or tui?

There are many ways i don't what to do.

Probably im going to do git repo with lazygit. I like tuis. I am managing files on two artix linux systems 1- pc and 2- laptop

I use a bare git repo. After the initial set-up its just the basic git commands but invoked with a gitdf alias. I wrote a (non-monetized) blog post here about it.

If still needing a tui you could write a simple helper script to call the commands.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
