My dotfiles tree is (relative to ~/.dotfiles):
./guix/home.scm
./backup/.config/..
./android/.config/..
...
It works with such config:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(service home-dotfiles-service-type
(home-dotfiles-configuration
(directories
(list
(home-dotfiles-stow-directory
(name "..")
(applications
'("backup"
"android"
"email"
"xsession"
"git"
"qutebrowser"
"desktop")))))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
`name` is in fact a relative path, so this field should be
renamed.
`applications` are called `PACKAGES` in `stow` man page, so I'd
rename it to match.
