Britt Gresham's Dotfiles Repo

Even though these are some pretty kick-ass configs, use at your own risk!

Installation

Pull down this git repository and run setup.sh to install dotfiles.

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

These dotfiles can also be installed via (https://github.com/demophoon/dotfiles-puppet)[Puppet].

Use zsh instead of bash!

Even though most of these configurations are backwards compatible with bash to get the best experience I recommend using zsh instead.

chsh -s /bin/zsh

Install Script

• setup.sh [--force]
  • Installs dotfiles into home directory. Warning: This will remove current settings in your home directory! Only run if you want the dotfiles in this repository! You have been warned!
