.dot-files

The configuration files for programs I often use.

Installing

Just clone, set up the submodules, and link in the files

$ cd
$ git clone https://bitbucket.org/tim_heap/.dot-files.git
$ cd .dot-files
$ git submodule update --init
$ ./create-links

The script create-links will create links to the files in your home directory. It will back up any existing files first, so you can always roll back to what you have. It will delete any symlinks already there.

Configuring

bash

Create a ~/.bashrd.local file. It will be sourced before all other files when starting the shell. Common variables you might want to set include:

# If a system sets TMOUT, unset it
TMOUT_BUST=1

# Where to find a conda installation for this system
CONDA_ROOT=$HOME/.local/share/miniconda3

# Which editor to use
export EDITOR=nvim
export VISUAL=nvim

git

Create a ~/.config/git/config.local file. Common settings you might want to include:

[user]
name = "Tim Heap"
email = "tim@example.com"
