Getting Started

To get started there are three easy steps:

1. Fork this repo, then clone your fork to your computer.
2. Put your dotfiles in home/ and check them in.
3. Run the link script to create symbolic links in your home directory.

Now your dotfiles are in a git repo and you can clone them anywhere and keep them synchronized.

Linking in Your Dotfiles on a New Computer

alec@laptop dotfiles % ./link
linking dotfiles
  from: /Users/alecbcs/src/dotfiles/home
  into: /Users/alecbcs

# exclude a file/directory
alec@laptop dotfiles % ./link -e .emacs.d

If something goes wrong, not to worry. link keeps backups in ~/.dotfiles-backup. You can run unlink to delete all the symbolic links and put your old config files back where they were:

Unlinking Your Dotfiles from a Computer

alec@laptop dotfiles % ./unlink
unlinking dotfiles
  from: /Users/alecbcs/src/dotfiles/home
  into: /Users/alecbcs
