On a new mac, open a Terminal and run:
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Overbryd/dotfiles/master/bootstrap.sh
chmod +x bootstrap.sh
./bootstrap.sh
Enter the ~/dotfiles directory, make changes and make it:
cd ~/dotfiles
make
The Makefile contains sections for installing *nix command line utilities, macOS applications, macOS settings and maintaing specific configurations.
So you can also only re-make a section of the project, for example the macOS dock settings:
cd ~/dotfiles
make defaults-Dock
Or only rebuild your vim:
cd ~/dotfiles
make vim
Or upgrade all installed packages:
cd ~/dotfiles
make brew
