>just login in GitHubs vscode

Imagine if you had to do that to every program you want to configure. Sure, rsync/git cloning your config may be less straightforward than logging in somewhere, but it's far more convenient when you have to configure dozens of programs anyway.



I understand your point, but the person above has to login to Git every time they want to pull down their .vim config. It's a similar thing.


You don't have to login to Git if your dotfiles are public. Or if you throw them up on a "private only by lack of awareness" repo.
