Version-Controlled Resume

Just some simple scripts for generating a pdf resume from a latex file.

An example (my resume) is available here.

Quickstart

You need pdflatex installed and on your path.

git clone git@github.com:powersdev/resume ~/resume

(If you clone elsewhere, update the config file accordingly)

1. Copy the .config file to ~/.resume and modify.
2. Symlink the bin/resume binary to somewhere on your path.

This project uses lefthook to build the PDF as a pre-commit hook to ensure you always commit the latest copy.
