Installation

1. clone this repository into a hidden directory

   git clone https://github.com/jokeyrhyme/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles

2. (optional) install Homebrew

3. run any of the following as you wish

   sh ~/.dotfiles/packages/git-install.sh
   sh ~/.dotfiles/packages/mercurial-install.sh
   sh ~/.dotfiles/packages/fonts-install.sh
   sh ~/.dotfiles/packages/zsh-install.sh # requires git
   sh ~/.dotfiles/packages/nodejs-install.sh # requires git
   sh ~/.dotfiles/packages/ruby-install.sh # requires git
   sh ~/.dotfiles/packages/vim-install.sh # requires git

Debian / Ubuntu / etc

• these systems symlink /bin/sh to dash rather than bash

• as such, whilst examples here use sh, you will have to use bash explicitly

Updating

cd ~/.dotfiles
git pull
sh ~/.dotfiles/scripts/update.sh

Note: sudo

I avoid sudo usage where possible. I currently need it for:

• system package installation (e.g. pacman, apt, yum)
• ensuring installed zsh is in the /etc/shells file
• setting zsh as the default shell for the current user
