In this video I talk about why you should create your own dotfiles git repository. Now.
Dotfiles are little text based configuration files in which a lot of programs store their settings in. And with that we can use git to synchronise all our settings across different machines like macs, linux and windows.

As dotfile manager I use YADM which stands for Yet Another Dotfile Manager. This tool helps you to get your files ready for automated setups and restores.
My shell is zsh, without oh my zsh as plugin manager.
YADM: yadm.io/
