It allows you to experiment with adding new stuff to the file without ending a day with not working tool.</p> <p>You&rsquo;ve probably seen people sharing their <em>dotfiles</em> on Github accounts or r/unixporn at Reddit using git repos. At least I&rsquo;ve seen.</p> <p>So my first trial of backuping my config files was very trivial (but it did the job!). I just <code>cp</code>ied i3wm config to created directory, initiated a new git repository and pushed that to the remote repo on Github. And you might think that&rsquo;s not bad!</p>
