Repository files navigation

~josh

These are my dotfiles. There are many like them, but these are mine.

intro

Dotfiles are used to personalize a *NIX system. I use these dotfiles on Linux and Mac OS X systems.

Both the install script (see below) and the repository layout are tailored for management with yadm.

I use the excellent zsh for my shell, but most of the aliases, shell functions, etc in .zshrc and elsewhere should work just fine in bash.

There are comments throughout my dotfiles attributing all known original sources.

install

You are strongly encouraged to inspect the install script for yourself before running it like this:

$ zsh <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/joshdick/dotfiles/main/.dotfiles_utils/install.sh)

The install script assumes that you are using zsh as your shell and requires curl and git to be installed as prerequisites.

It will not overwrite any of your existing dotfiles.

I take no responsibility for any havoc the install script may wreak on your system...it works for me!

usage

~/.localrc will be sourced if it exists. Anything that should be kept secret/doesn't need to be version controlled should go in this file. It is useful for machine-specific configuration.

~/.bin contains git submodules for various utilities I use. These are added to PATH as appropriate via the ~/.bin/bin_init.zsh script. ~/.bin itself is also added to PATH.
