Daniele’s dotfiles

Installation

Pre-Requisites

You need to install

• XCode from app store
• [Homebrew] (https://brew.sh/)
• [Dropbox] (https://www.dropbox.com)

Using Git and the bootstrap script

You can clone the repository wherever you want. (I like to keep it in ~/projects/dotfiles, with ~/dotfiles as a symlink.) The bootstrapper script will pull in the latest version and copy the files to your home folder.

git clone https://github.com/dzannotti/dotfiles.git && cd dotfiles && source bootstrap.sh

Git-free install

To install these dotfiles without Git:

cd; curl -#L https://github.com/dzannotti/dotfiles/tarball/master | tar -xzv --strip-components 1 --exclude={README.md,bootstrap.sh,LICENSE-MIT.txt}

To update later on, just run that command again.

Specify the $PATH

If ~/.path exists, it will be sourced along with the other files, before any feature testing (such as detecting which version of ls is being used) takes place.

Here’s an example ~/.path file that adds /usr/local/bin to the $PATH:

export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"

./.macos

Install Homebrew formulae

When setting up a new Mac, you may want to install some common Homebrew formulae (after installing Homebrew, of course):

./brew.sh
