		dhimes on Sept 5, 2013 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Using GNU Stow to manage your dotfiles I wondered about this, but I pose this question to you: what happens if you have a merge problem with, say, a libreoffice doc or something. How do you handle that? I use hg, but I imagine my plight would be similar. TIA.

I don't keep anything but text files in my dotfile repo, so I haven't had to deal with this.
