dotfiles

💻 Automated configuration, preferences and software installer for macOS

This dotfiles setup has been created for personal use on clean systems. Usage on existing systems has not been tested. Support for existing systems is work in progress.

Installation

Start off by installing command line tools

xcode-select --install

Next, clone this repository and run the Makefile.

mkdir -p $HOME/jorgenkrieger
git clone git://github.com:jorgenkrieger/dotfiles.git $HOME/jorgenkrieger/dotfiles
cd $HOME/jorgenkrieger/dotfiles && make install

Essential knowledge

Warning Although dotfiles contain most preferences, not all preferences are equally shareble (think security settings). That's why the dotfiles repository should only contain shareble data and be symlinked into the system.

Commands

These dotfiles use GNU make to install the entire setup, or portions of it. This should be installed on the system by default.
