sholeka / dotfiles

.files, including ~/.osx — sensible hacker defaults for OS X

Julie's dotfiles

Originally cloned, stripped and modified from Paul Irish's dotfiles with some further customizations.

Install

1. Clone this repository
2. Run ./sync.sh and confirm deletion of existing files when prompted.

Customizations

Powerline Fonts

https://github.com/powerline/fonts

Color Theme - Argonaut

VS Code Settings

zsh

I have customized oh-my-zsh 🚀 spaceship theme to look like the pure prompt I previously used, but discarded because it mangled pinentry prompts.

z jumper

Lets me jump around in history without knowing/typing entire path, for example:

$ z dotfiles

# Hit Tab, Enter and you're there
$ ~/Code/dotfiles

Mac Adjustments

Git - Disable OS X Keychain

Mac OS by default wants to use the OS X keychain. But I want to use git-credential-netr.

Verify problem with

$ git config --system credential.helper
osxkeychain

Then try

git config --system --unset credential.helper

OR create a blank config to override system default:

touch /usr/local/etc/gitconfig

Yep, it's supposed to be empty.

Big Sur 🤦‍♀️

After every tiny OS update, need to re-run:

xcode-select --install
