Gerard Braad's dotfiles

using Git and Stow

Do not use this directly, but take parts and learn from it. I share it because I got frustrated about moving a tarball around (and being scared of losing it). This eventually happened when my notebook got stolen... so, this is not an ideal solution for you. Treat it as, "what you see is what it is"...

This forms the basis of my development environment images.

Requirements

CentOS/Fedora

$ dnf install git zsh stow

CentOS 8 (powerline-local)

$ dnf install epel-release python2

Debian/Ubuntu

$ apt-get install git zsh stow

Installation

Automated

$ curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gbraad/dotfiles/master/install.sh | sh

Manual

After setting up the requirements you can use GNU stow to install the dotfiles per application

$ git clone https://github.com/gbraad/dotfiles.git .dotfiles --recursive
$ cd .dotfiles
$ ./install.sh  # optional
$ stow zsh
