[FEATURE] dotter init souldn't ignore dotfiles #126

Open KrullBorg opened 1 year ago

KrullBorg commented 1 year ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. dotter init ignores dotfiles

Describe the solution you'd like I think it sould produce entries surrounded with quotes

For example .Xresources

should become

".Xresources"="~/.Xresources"

The original reason I filtered out dotfiles is because of the .dotter and .git folders that probably exist in that repo... Guess I can just include them anyways? Or maybe hardcode them to an ignore list.

i'm talking about only files; but yes it could be take into account also directories; maybe dotter init could have an --exclude parameter? or, as you said, an hardcoded list of directories to exclude could be enough

Yeah it should be enough. This doesn't have to be perfect, you're expected to use it to get a rough template and then edit from there
