Fork of https://github.com/thoughtbot/dotfiles
Set zsh as your login shell:
chsh -s $(which zsh)
Install the-silver-searcher
Clone onto your laptop:
git clone git://github.com/felixlaumon/dotfiles.git
(Or, fork and keep your fork updated).
Install rcm:
brew tap thoughtbot/formulae
brew install rcm
Install the dotfiles:
env RCRC=$HOME/dotfiles/rcrc rcup
This command will create symlinks for config files in your home directory.
Setting the RCRC
environment variable tells rcup
to use standard
configuration options:
- Exclude the
README.md
andLICENSE
files, which are part of thedotfiles
repository but do not need to be symlinked in. - Give precedence to personal overrides which by default are placed in
~/dotfiles-local
You can safely run rcup
multiple times to update:
rcup
