GitHub Build Status

This is an example repository for using a .dotfiles repository with stow to make your preferences portable across machines.

Fork this repo so you can customize it with your own information.

Prerequisites

You'll need a working installation of stow. The easiest way is Homebrew.

Repo Usage

  1. Check out the repository into your home directory:
cd ~
git clone [email protected]:cisagov/.dotfiles.git
  1. Stow all the packages from .dotfiles into your home directory either via the deploy.sh script.

Customization

You'll want to make some changes, e.g. username and email should be set to your own. You can do this by editing the files in your new ~/.dotfiles folder.

Generate a GPG key to sign your git commits etc and add it to the .gitconfig file - follow the prompts:

gpg --gen-key
