Not working as intended?

[S3NTYN3L]

When I fork your repo and follow your instructions, bin , ignore and share don't appear in the ~/.config/dotgit/ directory on my machine.

Thus, things like dot profile and dot files are utterly broken.

Please look into this.

Seems to be working now. Something must have gotten corrupted during transfer. I don't know how that could have happened twice, with a reboot in between, but the third time is the charm, as they say... ;)

For my third attempt, I ended up rm -rfing my ~/.config/dotgit directory. I deleted my dot-git fork and forked yours again. From there, I just followed step 2 in the README less the alias and shell sourcing bits.

Sorry to have bothered you.

I've spoken too soon. I keep seeing the following error any time I try commands like dot files. ~/.config/dotgit/bin/git-profile: line 251: type: dot_master: not found

I also cannot create any profiles. For example, the command dot profile add vim returns; 1 dot: Revision 'dot-vim' does not exist.

Do you have any insight to provide?

It seems that refactoring the code to create a new work tree in place broke it. Let me see if I can fix that.

In the mean time, you can just create a new orphan branch named dot-vim, and create a profile off it. Let me know if you have any issue with that.

[Snaipe]

I fixed the profile code -- profile add should now work as expected. Let me know if this fixes anything for you.

[S3NTYN3L]

Running dot files returns Expansion of alias 'profiles' failed: 'profile' is not a git command. There is also a bunch of code spat out on the screen.

Running dot profile add vim returns git: 'profile' is not a git command. See 'git --help'

[Snaipe]

What does type dot return? $HOME/.config/dotgit/bin needs to be present in your path (though this should have been done in the dot alias), and $HOME/.config/dotgit/bin/git-profile need to exist/be executable.

If you're missing the git-profile script, you can bring it back with dot checkout -f -- ~/.config/dotgit/bin.

[S3NTYN3L]

type dot returns dot is aliased to 'PATH="$HOME/.config/dotgit/bin:$PATH" git --git-dir="$HOME/.config/dotgit/repo" --work-tree="$HOME"'

Alas, when running the dot files command, while it does indeed now return the added files, there is also an error at the top of the output: /home/s3ntyn3l/.config/dotgit/bin/git-profile: line 245: type: dot-master: not found

If I run dot profile add vim and then run dot files, a new line is prepended with the same message. /home/s3ntyn3l/.config/dotgit/bin/git-profile: line 245: type: dot-vim: not found

Finally, if I run dot profile add vim and then dot profile add vim .vimrc, I get; /home/s3ntyn3l/.config/dotgit/bin/git-profile: line 245: type: dot-vim: not found

This seems to be the same error as before, just happening with a different command.

[Snaipe]

This seem to come from something else. Is /bin/sh symlinked to another shell on your system?

Also, could you edit the first line of git-profile from #!/bin/sh -e to #!/bin/sh -ex, run dot files 2>&1 | curl -F c=@- https://ptpb.pw, and paste the link here?

[Snaipe]

I can reproduce the issue when running the script with bash rather than a strictly-compliant shell like dash -- type prints to stderr if he can't find a symbol in this case.

This should now be fixed -- try pulling from me with dot pull --rebase https://github.com/Snaipe/dot-git master, and let me know if that fixes it for you too.

Sorry, I've been busy the last few days. Everything seems to be working as it should now.

Thanks much for addressing this! ;)
