How do you guys quickly sync your settings (especially bash aliases and ssh keys) across your machines?

Ideally i want a simple script to run on every new server I work with. Any suggestions?

    My solution is not ideal:

    I created a directory, called ~/config_sync. I create sym links for config files, like ~/.bashtc to ~/config_sync/bashrc

    However, I need to record the sym links I’ve created, and repeat this process on new machines

      Look into using GNU stow! It’s exactly what you’re doing but it creates the symlinks for you.
