Your dotfiles are how you personalize your system. These are mine.
Zach Holman wrote a nice piece about why sharing dotfiles is cool.
git clone git://github.com/ptomli/dotfiles ~/.dotfilescd ~/.dotfilesscript/bootstrap
This will symlink the appropriate files in .dotfiles to your home directory.
Everything is configured and tweaked within ~/.dotfiles.
The main file you'll want to change right off the bat is zsh/zshrc.symlink,
which sets up a few paths that'll be different on your particular machine.
Everything's built around topic areas. If you're adding a new area to your
forked dotfiles — say, "Java" — you can simply add a java directory and put
files in there. Anything with an extension of .zsh will get automatically
included into your shell. Anything with an extension of .symlink will get
symlinked without extension into $HOME when you run rake install.
A lot of stuff. Seriously, a lot of stuff. Check them out in the file browser above and see what components may mesh up with you. Fork it, remove what you don't use, and build on what you do use.
There's a few special files in the hierarchy.
- bin/: Anything in
bin/will get added to your$PATHand be made available everywhere. - topic/*.zsh: Any files ending in
.zshget loaded into your environment. - topic/*.symlink: Any files ending in
*.symlinkget symlinked into your$HOME. This is so you can keep all of those versioned in your dotfiles but still keep those autoloaded files in your home directory. These get symlinked in when you runrake install. - topic/*.completion.sh: Any files ending in
completion.shget loaded last so that they get loaded after we set up zsh autocomplete functions.
I'm not expecting many, if any, people to fork this, but if you do and discover an problem, please open an issue.
I forked Zach Holmans' dotfiles.
