question to git masters

[vorotylo]

I keep my dotfiles (.emacs, .xmonad, etc.) in a git repository which is published to github. Due to my poor git skills, I've got a rather curly patching history.
The question is: how can I make (and keep!) this repo flat, lined up?
...There are three Linux boxen - work, home laptop, and home

You can get hostname in xmonad.hs and set resolutions accordingly.

hostname is nothing, screen resolution is everything. :)
I've bought 22" monitor for my home desktop just a week ago. Emacs window should be shrinked a lot in order to remain 80-characters wide. :)

I mean, you can determine (from within xmonad.hs) by hostname which computer xmonad is running on and then set up whatever you like (some layout parameters for emacs, for instance). Is there something m4 can do and Haskell cannot?

I'll consider your idea, thanks.
