This repository contains a framework for managing dotfiles.

Quick start

First, fork this repo.

Then, add your dotfiles:

    $ git clone git@github.com:username/dotfiles.git
    $ cd dotfiles
    $  # edit files
    $  # edit files
    $ git push origin master

Finally, to install your dotfiles onto a new system:

    $ cd $HOME
    $ git clone git@github.com:username/dotfiles.git .dotfiles
    $ ./.dotfiles/bin/dfm  # creates symlinks to install files

Later, to update your files:

    $ dfm updates
    ... shortlog of updates
    $ dfm mi
    ... changes merged in and install run again

Or, to do the above in one step:

    $ dfm umi
    ... shortlog of updates
    ... changes merged in and install run again
