This repo contained my dotfiles untill 2023, now they are all managed to my nix-config. Check out the config/ folder for actual dot files like neovim/i3/wezterm config and such.

My OS X / Ubuntu / Debian dotfiles.

The dotfiles of (github.com/marcusramberg)[marcusramberg] - Initially system was based on (github.com/cowboy/dotfiles)[Cowboy's dotfiles]. They are heavily changed to use ansible, zsh, and debianish/arch, as well as my config files.

That command is ~/bin/dotfiles, and this is my "dotfiles" Git repo.

It's really not complicated. When you run dotfiles , it does the following things:

1. Installs Git if necessary, via APT or Homebrew (also installed if necessary).
2. Clones this repo into the ~/.dotfiles directory (or updated if it already exists).
3. Executes files in init (in alphanumeric order).
4. Copies in copy into ~/.
5. Links files and folders in link into ~/.
6. Sets up prefs as well as vim plugins.

Note:

• The backups folder only gets created when necessary. Any files in ~/ that would have been overwritten by copy or link get backed up there.
• Files in bin are executable shell scripts (includes ~/.dotfiles/bin into the path).
• Files in source get sourced whenever you open a new shell (in alphanumeric order)..
• Files in conf just sit there. If a config file doesn't need to go in ~/, put it in there.
• Files in caches are cache files, only used by some scripts. This folder is auto-created.

Notes:

• You need to be an administrator (for sudo).
• You need to have installed XCode Command Line Tools, which are available as a separate, optional (and much smaller) download from XCode.

bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/marcusramberg/dotfiles/master/bin/dotfiles)" && source ~/.config/fish/config.fish

Notes:

• You need to be an administrator (for sudo).
• If APT wasn't updated or upgraded recently, it will probably take some minutes before you see anything.

sudo apt-get -qq update && sudo apt-get -qq upgrade && sudo apt-get -qq install curl ansible && echo &&
bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/marcusramberg/dotfiles/master/bin/dotfiles)" && source ~/.zshrc

These things will be installed, but only if they aren't already.

Any file in the copy subdirectory will be copied into ~/. Any file that needs to be modified with personal information (like .gitconfig which contains an email address and private key) should be copied into ~/. Because the file you'll be editing is no longer in ~/.dotfiles, it's less likely to be accidentally committed into your public dotfiles repo.

Any file in the link subdirectory gets symbolically linked with ln -s into ~/. Edit these, and you change the file in the repo. Don't link files containing sensitive data, or you might accidentally commit that data!

To keep things easy, the ~/.zshrc file is extremely simple, and should never need to be modified. Instead, add your aliases, functions, settings, etc into one of the files in the source subdirectory, or add a new file. They're all automatically sourced when a new shell is opened. Take a look, I have a lot of aliases and functions. I even have a fancy prompt that shows the current directory, time and current git/svn repo status.

In addition to the aforementioned dotfiles script, there are a few other scripts. This includes ack, which is a git submodule.

• dotfiles - (re)initialize dotfiles. It might ask for your password (for sudo).
• src - (re)source all files in source directory
• Look through the bin subdirectory for a few more.

Git repos display as [branch:flags] where flags are:

? untracked files ! changed (but unstaged) files + staged files

SVN repos display as [rev1:rev2] where rev1 and rev2 are:

rev1 last changed revision rev2 revision
