--dotfiles
Enable special handling for "dotfiles" (files or folders whose name begins with a period) in the package directory. If this option is enabled, Stow will add a preprocessing step for each file or
folder whose name begins with "dot-", and replace the "dot-" prefix in the name by a period (.). This is useful when Stow is used to manage collections of dotfiles, to avoid having a package
directory full of hidden files.
