dotfiles

These are my dotfiles. Currently these dotfiles are for a Mac, zsh setup, but the files can easily be configured for bash instead of zsh.

Most relevant things

• Bootstrap bash installation script (Darwin-specific)
• Command line aliases
• Tmux usage, readline etc

Install

After creating .env file in root dir of this repo, run sh init.bootstrap.sh and it'll symlink appropriate dotfiles to your home directory.

Sample .env file:

GITHUB_USERNAME="your-username"
GITHUB_EMAIL="[email protected]"

Installation (Detailed)

1. Back up your existing dotfiles. If your dotfiles are stored in bash_profile in your home directory, make a backup copy of that file, because the scripts in this repo will symlink to your home directory when you run the bootstrap.sh script.

2. git clone this repo (instructions here on how to clone a repo) and cd into dotfiles dir.

3. Create an .env file for your Github username and email. Here's why.

4. Run the bootstrap script. sh ./init.bootstrap.sh.

5. Tell your shell to recognize the changes to your environment, by sourcing your bash profile with source ~/.bash_profile.
