Install Pre-Requirements

Oh My Zsh

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/master/tools/install.sh)"

Then, install this repo with curl available:

bash -c "`curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SpiritBreaker226/dotfiles/master/install.sh`"

This will clone (using git), or download (using curl or wget), this repo to ~/.dotfiles. Alternatively, clone manually into the desired location:

git clone https://github.com/SpiritBreaker226/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles

Use the Makefile to install everything listed above, and symlink runcom and config (using stow):

cd ~/.dotfiles
make

Customize/extend

You can put your custom settings, such as Git credentials in the system/.custom file which will be sourced from .profile automatically. This file is in .gitignore.

Alternatively, you can have an additional, personal dotfiles repo at ~/.extra. The runcom .profile sources all ~/.extra/runcom/*.sh files.

dotfiles's Issues

Update Homebrew Cask URL

Hi, we just wanted to let you know that you are still linking to the old Homebrew Cask homepage (caskroom.io) in README.md. This domain expired a few years ago and is not controlled by Homebrew anymore.

When you get a chance, please update the link to https://brew.sh/ or https://formulae.brew.sh/cask/.

Thank you,
the Homebrew team.
