dotfilesv2

After considering stow or nix, this is a pure git driven solution to tame my dotfiles.

Requirements for use

• git
• curl

Requirements for contribution (check pre-commit config)

• pre-commit
• shfmt
• shellcheck
• gitleaks

Install

Install brew first (follow the instructions from the homebrew website)

Please read the script before executing:

curl -Lks https://raw.githubusercontent.com/anden-dev/dotfilesv2/main/bin/install.sh | /bin/bash

In a nutshell

This:

• creates a bare repo in ~/.dot and track all the files in the ~.
• adds all files in ~ to .gitignore, so that we don't add any private files into git inadvertently (files MUST be added forcefully using -f flag)
• creates a special git alias named dot which is specifilly for working with the dotfiles located in ~

Usage

dot add -f .a-dot-file
dot commit -m "Added .a-dot-file"
dot push origin master

Installation

Carefull idiot install (check the script before you run this)

curl -Lks https://raw.githubusercontent.com/anden-dev/dotfilesv2/main/.bin/install.sh | /bin/bash

alias dot='git --git-dir=$HOME/.dot/ --work-tree=$HOME'
