Setup

• Run this: install.sh
• Installs from $HOME/dotfiles/ by default. Run as DOTFILES=/path/to/this/repo install.sh to change.
  • Note that several included conf files use this $DOTFILES value as well.

Post-install

• Any local user shell customizations live in your own ~/.dotfilesrc-pre-hook and ~/.dotfilesrc-post-hook.
• Git committer values should be added in the post-hook like this:

    export GIT_COMMITTER_NAME='Your Name'
    export GIT_AUTHOR_NAME=${GIT_COMMITTER_NAME}
    export GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL=email@example.com
    export GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL=${GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL}

Other options

• etc/dircolors contains optional dircolors configs from gnome-terminal-colors-solarized. Default in conf/dircolors is ansi-dark.

Bundled plugins (vim, tmux, zsh)

Bundled plugins are managed via git submodule

Updating bundled plugins

dotfiles_update will handle it.

Or targeted: git submodule update --remote --recursive

Installing new bundled plugins

cd to/dotfiles/dir/where/plugin/should/live

git submodule add https://github.com/pluginAuthor/pluginName

Removing bundled plugins

Submodules can be removed like any other git-managed file:

git rm -rf path/to/submodule
