.dotfiles

This repository contains my .dotfiles for most of the application I am using. My goal is to follow as much possible the XDG Base Directory specification but in a pragmatic way. I recommend no one to use those dot files as they are but can be good for inspiration purposes.

Concerned applications

• bash
• cookiecutter
• ctags
• dunst
• git
• ranger
• tmux
• vim
• zathura

Deployment

• Clone as a repo

rm -rf ${HOME}/.vim/plugged; git clone --bare --recurse-submodules "[email protected]:RobinCamarasa/.dotfiles.git" "${HOME}/.dotfiles.git"

• Create the dotfile alias

alias dotfiles='/usr/bin/git --git-dir="${HOME}/.dotfiles.git/" --work-tree="${HOME}"'

• Deploy

dotfiles checkout -f && dotfiles submodule update && dotfiles config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no

• (Optional but recommended) Add your the dotfiles alias in ~/.bash_aliases

echo "alias dotfiles='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=\"\${HOME}/.dotfiles.git/\" --work-tree=\"\${HOME}\"'" >> "${HOME}/.bash_aliases"
