My Dotfiles

This is a repo of my dotfiles to set up a new osx machine. Heavily influenced and structured based on mathiasbynes/dotfiles.

Usage

Clone this repo and navigate to dotfiles directory and execute source bootstrap.sh. Also install Brew before going much further.

Install Homebrew and Cask Formulas

Execute the Brewfile on a new machine to install a bunch of useful homebrew formulas.

bash ./brew.sh

After running the brew file you will need to update your shell to use the updated bash version instead of the system default bash. You will see complaints about bash-completion arguments if you have not done this.

$ sudo vi /etc/shells
# add `/usr/local/bin/bash` to the list of shells
$ chsh -s /usr/local/bin/bash

Setting up SSH

First create keepass db. Then create ssh keys, ensure Keepass SSH Agent integration and configure an entry to use SSH Agent

Create SSH config:

• touch ~/.ssh/config

Then for each key you want to use specifically for a domain add the following:

Host {host-alias}
    Hostname {host-domain}
    IdentitiesOnly yes
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/{public-key}.pub
