dotfiles

My personal dotfiles, originally for macOS only but currently being adapted for use on Linux based systems (Ubuntu and Pop!_OS in particular) where needed.

Installation

git clone --bare git@github.com:opdavies/dotfiles.git $HOME/dotfiles
git --git-dir $HOME/dotfiles --work-tree $HOME checkout
git --git-dir $HOME/dotfiles --work-tree $HOME config status.showUntrackedFiles no

Adding a config alias

You can also set a config alias as a wrapper for the Git command, as described within Atlassian's blog post:

alias config="git --git-dir $HOME/dotfiles --work-tree $HOME"

Adding new files

config add /path/to/file
config commit -m "Some commit message"
config push
