To establish symlinks on a new machine with GNU Stow run

stow vim

where the structure is .dotfiles/vim/.vimrc. This creates a symlink at ~/.vimrc, as running stow <dir> in /.dotfiles creates a symlink of all files under <dir> in the directory above /.dotfiles

Also, because several Vim workflows use fzf and Ag, it's worth noting them here to remember to install on new machines.

For the Silver Searcher:

brew install the_silver_searcher

For fzf:

brew install fzf
$(brew --prefix)/opt/fzf/install

The latter command being for things like key bindings (mainly the reverse search) and completion.
