Repository files navigation

... for Bash / ZSH / Git Bash (Windows) / Cygwin (Windows) / Bash on Ubuntu on Windows

-->Screenshots & Screencasts

You can clone the repository wherever you want. (I like to keep it in~/Projects/dotfiles, with~/dotfiles as a symlink.) The bootstrapper script will pull in the latest version and copy the files to your home folder.

# get the codecd~; git clone https://github.com/voku/dotfiles.git;cd dotfiles# only for Debian based e.g. Ubuntu, Lubuntu, Kubuntu etc../firstInstallDebianBased.sh# only for Cygwin (Windows)./firstInstallCygwin.sh# copy the dotfiles into your home directory./bootstrap.sh

To update,cd into your localdotfiles repository and then:

./bootstrap.sh

If~/.config_dotfiles does not exists, the "bootstrap.sh"-script will create a default config for you.

My~/.config_dotfiles looks something like this:

#!/bin/shCONFIG_DEFAULT_USER="lars"CONFIG_ZSH_PLUGINS="(git zsh-completions zsh-syntax-highlighting)"CONFIG_BASH_PLUGINS="(git)"CONFIG_ZSH_THEME="voku"CONFIG_BASH_THEME="voku"CONFIG_CHARSET_UTF8=trueCONFIG_LANG="en_US"CONFIG_TERM_LOCAL=""# terms: screen byobu tmuxCONFIG_TERM_SSH=""

If~/.extra exists, it will be sourced along with the other files. You can use this to add a few custom commands without the need to fork this entire repository, or to add commands you don’t want to commit to a public repository.

My~/.extra looks something like this:

#!/bin/shexport DOTFILESSRCDIR="/home/lars/dotfiles/"GIT_AUTHOR_NAME="Lars Moelleken"GIT_COMMITTER_NAME="$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"git config --file=$HOME/.gitconfig.extra user.name"$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL="lars@moelleken.org"GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL="$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL"git config --file=$HOME/.gitconfig.extra user.email"$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL"git config --file=$HOME/.gitconfig.extra push.default simple

You could also use~/.extra to override settings, functions and aliases from my dotfiles repository. It’s probably better tofork this repository instead, though. And you can use~/.vimrc.extra to edit the vim settings without touching the main configuration.

e.g.:

bash .redpill/tests/functions-tests.shzsh .redpill/tests/functions-tests.sh
