This script will:

1. Clone this repo to $HOME/.dotfiles
2. Ensure several directories exist
3. Install a bunch of stuff (see below for the list)
4. Backup existing dotfiles (Unless you specify OVERWRITE=true)
5. Symlink the dotfiles stored in this repo into place
6. Install zsh plugins

Prerequisites

Debugging

The script will output information to STDOUT, and if the script successfully clones this repo it will store a logfile in the repo at .install.log.

Organization

The install.sh script and the logfile, .install.log are both at the root of the repo (though the logfile is not tracked by git). The home/ directory holds all the dotfiles. It is organized such that a file home/something will be symlinked to ~/.something, and home/dir/descendant will be symlinked to ~/.dir/descendant.
