Dotfiles

Software License

Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler -- Albert Einstein

These are my dotfiles. Opinionated defaults for my workstations.

Installation

Either clone or download the repo and run the setup.sh script:

cd $HOME
git clone https://github.com/netsensei/dotfiles.git .dotfiles
cd .dotfiles
./setup.sh

... or run it through curl/bash. Beware: only do this if you know what you're doing!

curl -k -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/netsensei/dotfiles/master/setup.sh | bash

The setup script will make a backup of existing dotfiles, and create symlinks to the packaged dotfiles.

MacOS vs Linux

Most dotfiles projects are geared towards Mac OSX. A big tiny difference is how OSX tends to handle the execution of .bash_profile and .bashrc files compared to other UNIX variants such as Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu and others.

In a nutshell: OSX will call .bash_profile instead of .bashrc when you open a new terminal window. Everyone else will read .bashrc when you open an xterm. .bash_profile is read when you open up a new shell through ssh or from the text console.

John Staiger wrote a nice short blogpost called .bash_profile vs .bashrc that explains why.

So, if you want to use these dotfiles, start with .bashrc.

Inspiration

This configuration works for me, but they might not be suited for you. Dotfiles are personal settings. So, don't blindly copy this repository and run with it. Instead, fork this repository, or create your own dotfiles, and use this as a source for inspiration.

I drew inspiration from different sources to create my own dotfiles:
