My Dot Files

These are config files to set up a system the way I like it. It uses zsh and tmux configuration files.

I am running this on Linux and Mac OS X

Installation

Some of the tools for Vim are Vim Bundle things. I added them as Git submodules. After a clean repository clone these modules need to be cloned as well.

git clone git://github.com/tonk/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
git submodule init
git submodule update
make install

But be very carefull. This will overwrite what you have got now!!

After installing, open a new terminal window to see the effects.

Feel free to customize the files to match your preference.

git configuration

For git a special section is created in the configuration file. This [include] part is introduced in git version 1.7.10 and allows for inclusion of a personal file.

My ~/.gitconfig.private contains something like

[user]
	name = Ton Kersten
	email = weblog@tonkersten.com
	hostname = developer

[github]
	token = xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
	user = myuserid

Uninstall

To remove the dotfile configs, run the following commands. Be certain to double check the contents of the files before removing so you don't lose custom settings.

#
# For ZSH
#
rm ~/.zshenv
rm ~/.zshprofile
rm -rf ~/.zsh
#
# For Vim
#
rm -rf ~/.vim
rm ~/.vimrc
#
# For TMux
#
rm ~/.tmux.conf
#
# For git
#
rm ~/.gitignore
rm ~/.gitconfig

Then open a new terminal window to see the effects.
