These are Claire's dotfiles.
They aren't designed to be cloned or installed or anything snazzy like that, they're just a collection of scripts, settings and notes that Claire has used in the past, and therefore might be helpful when setting up a new machine.
I really like typing git s fot git status. You can set an alias in your .bash_profile file, or set it as a Git alias with the following command:
git config --global alias.s status
