Change rcm to another installation script #33

Open dzhlobo opened 3 years ago

dzhlobo commented 3 years ago

When I open a repo in GitHub codespaces it used to be unable to install our dotfiles because it didn't support rcm. I'm wondering if it's still the case. If it's still the case are there good alternatives for rcm we could use? How other teams do it?

Should we switch to some other setup tool or custom script so we could use dotfiles in GitHub Codespaces? 🤔

If we switch to some custom script it might eliminate necessity to install rcm but it also would make us to maintain this custom script.

@datarockets/developers, any thoughts on it?

This tool looks promising - https://github.com/twpayne/chezmoi/blob/master/docs/HOWTO.md#use-chezmoi-with-github-codespaces-visual-studio-codespaces-visual-studio-code-remote---containers
