Most of the symm linking and other commands can just be put in a script file to automate the process. Also, for rc.lua and theme.lua, don't forget to change the username.
To fork:
git clone http://github.com/username/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles
Check vim plugins(submodules) and install to remote computer by:
cd dotfiles git submodule init vim git submodule update vim
Create symmlinks:
ln -s ~/dotfiles/bashrc ~/.bashrc ln -s ~/dotfiles/Xresources ~/.Xresources ln -s ~/dotfiles/alias ~/.alias ln -s ~/dotfiles/vimrc ~/.vimrc ln -s ~/dotfiles/vim ~/.vim ln -s ~/dotfiles/config ~/.config ln -s ~/dotfiles/bash_profile ~/.bash_profile
note: do this after you symm link the files. Do all the steps above correctly.
cd ~/.config/awesome/ git clone http://git.sysphere.org/vicious git clone git://git.mercenariesguild.net/obvious.git git clone http://bioe007@github.com/bioe007/awesome-shifty.git shifty
###Miscellaneous
These steps are your own preferences but the ones I used are:
GTK Theme: BlackWhite Get it from. extract the folder "BlackWhite" to ~/.themes. (Make the folder if it doesn't exist.

(Note: Use lxapperance after you hace copied the file over to set the theme. It should show automatically).
Icon Theme: Faenza Ambience (Use the INSTALL script provided. Should be self explanatory. Change the icon variants with lxapperance).
###Adding new submodules to vim (deprecated. Use vundle) This step is a bit confusing as I keep forgetting it. So a memo:
git submodule add http://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive.git vim/bundle/vim-fugitive git add . git commit -m "added fuigitive as submodule"
