I am always a bit confused when I hear about GNU stow. Does it provide
more feature than this:

ETC=$(cd "${0%/*}" && pwd)
find "$ETC" -name .git -prune -o -path "$ETC/.*" | while IFS='' read -r
path
do
        [ -d "$path" ] && mkdir -p "$HOME/${path#$ETC}"
        [ -f "$path" ] && ln -sf "$path" "$HOME/${path#$ETC}"
done
