From 872ca5ff5a7e9fb6e767b91fefb4f160db001bf5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Willemse Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2021 23:42:10 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?[stow]=20Don=E2=80=99t=20fold=20directories=20w?= =?UTF-8?q?hen=20stowing=20files?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Folding means that if stow discovers a parent directory for a project or a file in it exists, it doesn’t create the directory structure and then links the file, instead it makes a symbolic link between the directory. This means that any files created in that directory show up in this repository. The upside of that situation is that if I remove or rename files, and the directory it’s in is folded, it doesn’t leave dead links around. --- .stowrc | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/.stowrc b/.stowrc index 8459be5..8e27a40 100644 --- a/.stowrc +++ b/.stowrc @@ -4,3 +4,4 @@ --ignore .dir-locals.el --ignore PKGBUILD --ignore pkg.tar.xz +--no-folding
