Dotfiles

This repo contains my personal dotfile configuration along with documentation for any software or preferences I have that must be manually setup. Largely based off of this. Focuses on configuring over provisioning (but does some provisioning e.g. brew).

Installation

# Require first on Mac to make sure you have things like Git
xcode-select --install

# Clone the dotfiles repo. Work tree is $HOME so that dotfiles are in the right spot.
# Git dir is in $HOME/.dotfiles.git so that it isn't found by recursive directory search Git does.
git --work-tree=$HOME --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles.git init && \
git --work-tree=$HOME --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles.git remote add origin https://github.com/calebschoepp/dotfiles.git && \
git --work-tree=$HOME --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles.git pull origin main
make osx
