dotfiles

=======

These are my dotfiles. I use rcm to get a productive dev setup working within minutes. Most of this stuff is copied/stolen from a lot of different sources over the years. I you find something you like go ahead and take it :). The project structures is copied over from thoughtbot's dotfiles. Don't forget to checkout their dotfiles.

Requirements

Set zsh as your login shell:

chsh -s $(which zsh)

Install rcm on your machine.

Install

Clone onto your laptop:

git clone git://github.com/thoughtbot/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles

Install the dotfiles:

env RCRC=$HOME/dotfiles/rcrc rcup

After the initial installation, you can run rcup without the one-time variable RCRC being set (rcup will symlink the repo's rcrc to ~/.rcrc for future runs of rcup). See example.

This command will create symlinks for config files in your home directory. Setting the RCRC environment variable tells rcup to use standard configuration options:

Disclaimer

I blatantly stole most of this repo from thoughtbot's dotfiles. I did not fork the repo for the following reasons:

• I'm just getting started with rcm and I can not see how I would get my setup up and running with the suggested use of dotfiles-local.
• I want to expand this repository to include an Aptfile and install.sh so I only have to wget the install.sh and it sets everything up for me on a bare machine.
