My dotfiles.
This manages dotfiles via the bare-git-repo method. In this method, you simply let your dotfiles live where they're used, in ~, and version them in a separate, bare, git repository. See .zshrc for setup. Credit to @teamsnelgrove for pointing me to this method and to HN user StreakyCobra for sharing the method to begin with.
- Prefer simpler stuff.
- Prefer comment-delimited sections over more files. e.g., if you have aliases for interactive sessions, don't break them into
aliases.zshand thensource aliases.zshfrom.zshrc. Just put them in the# Functions.section of your.zshrc. - Embrace minor inconvenience.
./.config/dotfiles/Brewfiledoesn't mean you'll never need tobrew installmanually when you have to. Put another way: this is not a Terraform template for unattended provisioning of new boxes. This is a folder full of configuration files.
