Installation

Using Git and the bootstrap script

You can clone the repository wherever you want. The bootstrapper script will pull in the latest version and link the files to your home folder.

git clone https://github.com/cmbuckley/dotfiles.git && cd dotfiles && ./bootstrap.sh

To update, cd into your local dotfiles repository and then:

./bootstrap.sh

Alternatively, to update while avoiding the confirmation prompt:

./bootstrap.sh -f

Specify the $PATH

If ~/.path exists, it will be sourced along with the other files, before any feature testing takes place.
