Backup config files in home directory

[ronggui wong <ronggui.wong@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I have other files and directories in the home directory, and I just
want to backup all the config files, most of them are hidden files and
directories. Now I use tar and manually exclude my other files and
directories with --exclude argument. Is there a better way to do this?

Thanks.
