Oh My Zsh Plugins

You generally install oh my zsh plugins to the plugins folder. The following plugins need to be manually installed.

Setting up a new machine

alias dotfile="GIT_DIR=$HOME/.dotfiles.git/ GIT_WORK_TREE=$HOME"
git clone --bare git@github.com:adithyabsk/dotfiles.git $HOME/.dotfiles.git
dotfile git remote add private [REDACTED]
dotfile git fetch private
dotfile git checkout private
dotfile git config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no
# dotfile pre-commit install  # once brew dependencies are installed

Managing brew dependencies (kept private)

The first command dumps your brew installed files to a Brewfile. The second command checks if you are in sync with a particular Brewfile. The third command installs all dependencies in your Brewfile and also creates a Brewfile.lock.json.

dotfile git checkout private
brew bundle dump --describe
brew bundle check --file=Brewfile
brew bundle install --force-bottle

Workflow for updating Brewfile

dotfile git checkout private
rm Brewfile
brew bundle dump --describe
dotfile git diff Brewfile
brew bundle check --no-upgrade

Workflow to update Brewfile.lock.json

Make sure that you are ready to upgrade certain packages. (This may take some time)

This should generate an updated Brewfile.lock.json.

dotfile git checkout private
brew bundle check -v
brew bundle install --no-upgrade
# brew bundle install

Auditing Brew installations

Run through your Brewfile and remove files as needed. Check that the file is not a dependency of another package:

brew uses --installed [PACKAGE]

Managing all other files

dotfile git checkout master
# Now make the changes

Then, to keep the private repo in sync

dotfile git checkout private
dotfile git merge master

To list all tracked files, run: dotfile git ls-tree -r main --name-only
