Support XDG Base Directory Specification #45

Open psnszsn opened 5 years ago

psnszsn commented 5 years ago

Degit should be using $XDG_CACHE_HOME/degit instead of ~/.degit to store downloaded repositories. This keeps users' home directories clean of dotfiles. It is being widely adopted by Linux/BSD applications.

See here for more info.

Agree. Forced to refuse from degit because of this

Currently, degit use https://github.com/Rich-Harris/degit/blob/master/src/utils.js#L127 home-ortmp as a base directory determine way, maybe could use https://www.npmjs.com/package/xdg to instead.
