ooHmartY's Dotfiles

This is a collection of dotfiles and scripts I use for customizing OS X to my liking and setting up the software development tools I use on a day-to-day basis. They should be cloned to your home directory so that the path is ~/dotfiles/. The included setup script creates symlinks from your home directory to the files which are located in ~/dotfiles/.

The setup script is smart enough to back up your existing dotfiles into a ~/dotfiles_old/ directory if you already have any dotfiles of the same name as the dotfile symlinks being created in your home directory.

So, to recap, the install script will:

  • back up any existing dotfiles in your home directory to ~/dotfiles_old/
  • create symlinks to the dotfiles in ~/dotfiles/ in your home directory

Installation

$ git clone https://github.com/ooHmartY/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
$ cd ~/.dotfiles
$ ./setup.sh

Remotely install using curl

Alternatively, you can install this into ~/.dotfiles remotely without Git using curl:

sh -c "`curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/ooHmartY/dotfiles/master/remote-setup.sh`"

Or, using wget:

sh -c "`wget -O - --no-check-certificate https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ooHmartY/dotfiles/master/remote-setup.sh`"

Customize

Local Settings

The dotfiles can be easily extended to suit additional local requirements by using the following files:

~/.gitconfig.local

If the ~/.gitconfig.local file exists, it will be automatically included after the configurations from ~/.gitconfig, thus, allowing its content to overwrite or add to the existing git configurations.

Note: Use ~/.gitconfig.local to store sensitive information such as the git user credentials, e.g.:

[user]
  name = Oscar M.
  email = me@email.io
