I am sorry and aware this is the wrong community. However, I am unable to find Ask Programmer.

I wrote a small bash script, and I would like to share it on GitHub. However, to operate probably it requires dir with some files in user $HOME dir.

The only solutions came to my mind were, tar the directory BUT is this pragmatic solution?

    Correct.

    make install command will invoke install once for each file you need put in place.

    Make is just a tool that I like to use, you could even just add an install.sh script that sets up all the needed files.
