Personal dotfiles and command to manage them

Config Files

Setup

Configuration is managed using an alias to git that's setup by adding the lines:

export CFGDIR=$HOME/.cfg/
alias config="/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$CFGDIR --work-tree=$HOME"

to .bashrc or .zshrc and source in the shell to make active. Afterwards, the command config is used to alias all typical git usage.

To pull configuration and backup any existing files

git clone --bare https://github.com/geoffjay/cfg.git $HOME/.cfg
mkdir -p .config-backup
config checkout
if [ $? = 0 ]; then
  echo "checked out config";
else
  echo "backing up pre-existing dot files";
  config checkout 2>&1 |\
    egrep "\s+\." |\
    awk {'print $1'} |\
    xargs -I{} mv {} .config-backup/{}
fi;
config checkout
config config status.showUntrackedFiles no
