Your dotfiles are how you personalize your system. These are mine.
git clone [email protected]:megabytemb/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfilescd ~/.dotfiles./bootstrap./install
The install rake task will symlink the appropriate files in .dotfiles to your
home directory. Everything is configured and tweaked within ~/.dotfiles,
though.
The main file you'll want to change right off the bat is zsh/zshrc.symlink,
which sets up a few paths that'll be different on your particular machine.
dotupdate
Wasn't that simple?
Everything's built around topic areas. If you're adding a new area to your
forked dotfiles — say, "Java" — you can simply add a java directory and put
files in there. Anything with an extension of .zsh will get automatically
included into your shell. Anything with an extension of .symlink will get
symlinked without extension into $HOME when you run rake install.
