Why is .config/ in git repositories not a thing? As an XDG_CONFIG equivalent to move .vscode, .zed, .forgejo away from the repository root, that would be pretty nice.
#git #forgejo #gitea #vscode #zededitor

@niklaskorz@rheinneckar.social 20+ years in, that's a lot of scripts from a lot of people (including home-grown) to change. Nice thought, but I think .git has pretty much ossified by now.

@niklaskorz@rheinneckar.social there are initiatives: https://github.com/pi0/config-dir And there seems to be an increasing number of projects supporting it. It has also been proposed to lychee: https://github.com/lycheeverse/lychee/issues/1951 I do like the idea. Let's see if it prevails..
