Why?

Because storing cross-machine config is cumbersome. Installing Git is — for the most part — easy.

Making it Work

Getting Started:

git clone https://github.com/nonrational/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles && cd ~/.dotfiles
./pu.sh

Alternatively (requires wget but not git):

wget https://github.com/nonrational/dotfiles/archive/master.zip && unzip master && rm master
mv dotfiles-master .dotfiles && cd .dotfiles
./pu.sh

Arguments to pu.sh:

• -f : Delete all files WITHOUT ASKING YOU before symlinking in the new ones.
• -r : Apply root@host rules. Don't do this on shared systems unless you can beat up everyone else in finger
