This uses yadm, which is basically a lightweight wrapper around git to store your config files in a repo. There are other ways of managing your dotfiles with more generic tools, but yadm is lightweight enough and offers enough "just works" that its worth it.
Usage
This is standard yadm stuff copied here for convenience.
