How do you manage your dotfiles?
I have a dotfiles install script that fetches my config git repos & install their dependencies. It's a 126 loc readable bash script, it took me about 30 minutes to write it. I find it nice to have a simple & understandable solution.

How do you manage your dotfiles?
I use home-manager with Nix. Works really well, and can handle a lot more than just dotfile config, on multiple platforms.
What are some alternatives?

dotbare - Manage dotfiles and any git directories interactively with fzf
chezmoi - Manage your dotfiles across multiple diverse machines, securely.
dotfiles-manager - A powerful POSIX shell dotfiles manager program.
dotfiles - 🏠 dotfiles for my macOS environment
yadm - Yet Another Dotfiles Manager
mystuff - configs and scripts for linux
mydotfiles - A set of config files, vimrc, git, zshrc, etc. Work in progress.
rcm - rc file (dotfile) management
dotfiles - My dot files and dev environment using bash, tmux and vim
