- `dotbare` has disabled the command `dotbare add --All` as it is a really dangerous command in the conext of `dotbare` as it will stage everything in your \$DOTBARE_TREE to the index.
```sh
# Recommanded ways
# Recommended ways
dotbare fadd # and then press alt-a to select all
dotbare add -u # stage all modified file to index
dotbare commit -am "message" # this also works, it will stage all modified files and then commit

- Add the value of `$DOTBARE_DIR` to global .gitignore to avoid any weird recursion problem if accidentally adding
`$DOTBARE_DIR` to index, the value needs to be relative path to `$DOTBARE_TREE`
```sh
# e.g. DOTBARE_DIR="$HOME/.cfg", DOTBARE_TREE="$HOME"
echo ".cfg" >> $HOME/.gitignore
# e.g. DOTBARE_DIR="$HOME/.config/.cfg" DOTBARE_TREE="$HOME"
echo ".config/.cfg" >> $HOME/.gitignore
# e.g. DOTBARE_DIR="$HOME/.config/.cfg" DOTBARE_TREE="$HOME/.config"
