Any have $SPACEMACSDIR working? I’ve just set it to something simple like $HOME'/dotfiles/.spacemacs.d', but I think something is weird here: https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/blob/develop/core/core-dotspacemacs.el#L47

Here are the docs for it; I’m on the develop branch too. http://spacemacs.org/doc/DOCUMENTATION.html#alternative-dotdirectory

@dijonkitchen I just use the default .spacemacs.d, it works very well

yeah, i’ve gotten the default one working, but not the custom one

if you want to keep spacemacs init file in a directory (possibly with all the custom layers), you can do the following: 1. rename .spacemacs.d file to init.el 2. mkdir ~/.spacemacs.d 3. mv init.el ~/.spacemacs.d/ Now you can set dotspacemacs-configuration-layer-path '("~/.spacemacs.d/layers/") and keep all your custom layers in that directory. Now your entire spacemacs config is “gittable”

I get that, but that’s not the environmental variable way I mentioned above.
