I have tried this and it feels nice but I don't want to use git from the command line. I like magit or otherwise fork-app. I didn't find a way to use the bare repo with any of them in an easy way, so I gave up. I use stow now. It alright, but I'll change it in an instant if I found a way to use my tools with a bare git repo.

I use magit as well. I don't end up editing my dotfiles very often anyway, so it's not a big deal to execute a couple git commands here and there. The convenience of not linking files all over the place or depending on other scripts is pretty great.

I agree, but for me, I prefer having some symlinks than having to deal with git CLI :(.
