Installing Dotfiles

Adding a new dotfile

1. Place the file in the dotfiles repo at its path relative to $HOME (e.g., .config/foo/config goes in ~/dotfiles/.config/foo/config)

2. Add the path to the DOTFILES array in install.sh:

   DOTFILES=(.gitconfig .gitignore_global ... .config/foo/config)
   

3. Run ./install.sh to create the symlink

Directory configs (Sway, Waybar)

Sway and Waybar configs are symlinked as entire directories by scripts/arch-linux.sh, not via the DOTFILES array. To add a new directory-based config, add symlinking logic to scripts/arch-linux.sh following the existing pattern.
