7 Git tips for managing your home directory
I have several computers. I've got a laptop at work, a workstation at home, a Raspberry Pi (or four), a Pocket CHIP, a Chromebook running various forms of Linux, and so on. I used to set up my user environment on each computer by more or less following the same steps, and I often told myself that I enjoyed that each one was slightly unique. For instance, I use Bash aliases more often at work than at home, and the helper scripts I use at home might not be useful at work.
Over the years, my expectations across devices began to merge, and I'd forget that a feature I'd built up on my home machine wasn't ported over to my work machine, and so on. I needed a way to standardize my customized toolkit. The answer, to my surprise, was Git.
Git is version-tracker software. It's famously used by the biggest and smallest open source projects and even by the largest proprietary software companies. But it was designed for source code—not a home directory filled with music and video files, games, photos, and so on. I'd heard of people managing their home directory with Git, but I assumed that it was a fringe experiment done by coders, not real-life users like me.
Managing my home directory with Git has been an evolving process. I've learned and adapted along the way. Here are the things you might want to keep in mind should you decide to manage your home directory with Git.

How To Install Zig Programming Language on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS - idroot
In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Zig Programming Language on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. For those of you who didn’t know, Zig is a general-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software. The Zig programming language is developed by the Zig Software Foundation, which is a non-profit corporation founded in 2020 by Andrew Kelley.
This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo‘ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you through the step-by-step installation of Zig Programming Language on Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal Fossa). You can follow the same instructions for Ubuntu 18.04, 16.04, and any other Debian-based distribution like Linux Mint.
