Javache's dotfiles

Based on Mathias's dotfiles

Installation

Using Git and the bootstrap script

You can clone the repository wherever you want. (I like to keep it in ~/.dotfiles) The bootstrapper script will pull in the latest version and copy the files to your home folder.

git clone https://github.com/Javache/dotfiles.git && cd dotfiles && ./sync.sh

To update, cd into your local dotfiles repository and then:

./sync.sh

Alternatively, to update while avoiding the confirmation prompt:

./sync.sh -f

Sensible OS X defaults

When setting up a new Mac, you may want to set some sensible OS X defaults:

./setup-osx

Install Homebrew formulae

When setting up a new Mac, you may want to install some common Homebrew formulae (after installing Homebrew, of course):

./setup-homebrew
