Dotfiles

GitHub last commit GitHub license

This repository contains the configuration files (dotfiles) for my desktop workstation, based on Arch Linux. Other branches are used for my other devices. My system installation is documented here.

Initialize

I use a bare git repository to manage my dotfiles. To initialize use the following commands:

git clone --bare git@github.com:Vincevrp/dotfiles.git $HOME/.dotfiles
alias dotfiles='git --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles --work-tree=$HOME'
dotfiles checkout
dotfiles config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no

If you receive an error message about untracked working tree files; run the following command:

mkdir -p dot-backup && \
dotfiles checkout 2>&1 | egrep "\s+\." | awk {'print $1'} | \
xargs -I{} mv {} .dot-backup/{}

The idea behind the method described here is based on this article.
