git clone git@github.com:helior/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
rake install
The installer will set up your symbolic links to your home directory. If a duplicate file exists, it will prompt you to backup the file.
- This project assumes you place the repository in ~/.dotfiles.
- *.symlink files are automatically symbolically linked to your home directory. See Rakefile.
- *.zsh files are automatically sourced. See zsh/zshrc.symlink.
- ~/.localrc is sourced automatically. Use this file for sensitive information that you DON'T want in the repository. See zsh/zshrc.symlink.
Zach Holman and Yan Pritzker for sharing their methods for installing and updating their dotfiles and git submodules.
