check out gnu stow for this! i place my config files in ~/dots, mirroring the structure as if it were my home directory, and gnu stow can symlink everything to my home directory for me. then, only the dots directory is checked into version control.

i find this better than putting all of ~/.config in git, since i don't necessarily want everything there to be version controlled.
