Installation

Clone the repository (I keep it in ~/src/dotfiles/). The bootstrapper script will pull in the latest version and copy the files to your home folder.

git clone https://github.com/aam1r/dotfiles.git
cd dotfiles
python bootstrap.py

Usage

Creating ~/.secret allows you to have a file containing secret contents (i.e. things you don't want to commit). An example would be your git credentials so people don't accidentally commit under your name if they were to clone this repo:

GIT_AUTHOR_NAME="Your Name"
GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL="[email protected]"
GIT_COMMITTER_NAME="$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"
GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL="$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL"
git config --global user.name "$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"
git config --global user.email "$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL"

You could also use ~/.secret to override settings, functions, aliases and declare custom $PATH variables.
