*** Alternative setup
Since v0.104 you have the option of using =~/.spacemacs.d/init.el= for your
dotfile instead of =~/.spacemacs=. If you want to use this option, simply move
=~/.spacemacs= to =~/.spacemacs.d/init.el=. =~/.spacemacs= will always take
priority over =~/.spacemacs.d/init.el=, so =~/.spacemacs= must be missing for
=~/.spacemacs.d/init.el= to be used by spacemacs.
If you use this option, everything that applies to =~/.spacemacs= in this guide
will now apply to =~/.spacemacs.d/init.el=.
It is also possible to override the location of =~/.spacemacs.d/= using the
environment variable =SPACEMACSDIR=. Of course you can also use symlinks to
change the location of this directory.
** Synchronization of dotfile changes
To apply the modifications made in =~/.spacemacs= press ~SPC f e R~. It will
re-execute the =Spacemacs= initialization process.
