I recommend having an installable dotfiles repo (mine is github.com/markoa/dotfiles).

By linking your local files to the files in the repo, you almost completely eliminate the effort of keeping it up to date.

The first part is good. But it's the second that made me realize this is the best option!

This! And add a Cron that runs a script that updates everything from git, including itself and the Cron, so you get the changes with 0 effort
