Emacs Configuration

I finally decided that keeping my Emacs configuration together with all the other common configuration files comes close to blasphemy so I split it from the main dotfiles repo.

Seriously managing emacs through symlinks works but in the spirit of less is more just doing a

git clone forgejo@forge.snamellit.com:pti/emacs-config ~/.config/emacs

And then maintaining the files directly over there is easier than it being part of all the other stuff.

Of course easier is in the eye of the beholder at the time of observation. In practice it are all diffferent trade-offs. I think this setup will also make it easier to package up my emacs config as a GUIX package for distribution over my PCs.

Many thanks to the Crafted Emacs team which allowed me to bootstrap my configuration and enabled me to bootstrap my standalone configuration.
