Dotfiles
The following instructions will set up a bare Git repository in your home directory to track and manage your dotfiles without the need for symlinks or a separate tool.
Quick start
curl -L bit.ly/4vVSPw1 | sh
This will pull dotfiles into your home directory.
Then run one of the init scripts in ~/.dotfiles.d/init:
bash ~/.dotfiles.d/init/init-shell.sh
Run zsh to initialize the configuration. You may also want to set zsh as default shell:
chsh -s $(which zsh)
IMPORTANT: Backup your critical dotfiles before initializing this repostitory.
git init --bare $HOME/.dotfiles.git
alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles.git --work-tree=$HOME'
config config status.showUntrackedFiles no
Restore (sync)
git clone --separate-git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles.git http://git.nixlab.in/chodak166/dotfiles.git $HOME/dotfiles-tmp
# cp ~/dotfiles-tmp/.gitmodules ~ # If you use Git submodules
rm -r ~/dotfiles-tmp/
alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles.git/ --work-tree=$HOME'
Hard sync (replace existing files)
config reset --hard origin/master
Usage
config status
config add .vimrc
config commit -m "Add vimrc"
config add .config/redshift.conf
config commit -m "Add redshift config"
config push
Initialization
This is how it was created. No need to do this when using existing repository.
git init --bare $HOME/.dotfiles.git
alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$$HOME/.dotfiles.git --work-tree=$$HOME'
config config status.showUntrackedFiles no
