multi box configuration automation

Introduction

When I work on a box that ain't setup ma-way, I feel disoriented and unproductive. I wish ery box I sitdown to work at would magicaly configure it self ma-way. I useta try to keep my setup simple so that i could have a lil-ole' dotfiles repo and a couple symlinks on each box, but that ain't never worked well enough. There are so many dotfiles bootstraps and managment utilites out there. There all perdy darn good at solving this here very problem. I was guun use yadm but I also wanted to be able to throw around some $HOMEgrown Binarys + B able to run scripts for instlling all the tools and their plugins, that I like 2 use. So I'm werking on this. dot dot dot

• Use a single repo
• No dependencies, just /bin/bash I guess
• Be able 2 use different files based on OS or HOST or SHELL
• git all the work, keep'n trackn and sync'n stuff
• plays nice with bash and zsh
