Dotfiles
I have a love affair with my terminal. This is my collection of terminal configuration files that (attempt to) make daily use of the terminal easier, faster, and perhaps even more enjoyable. It’s all about strengthening the bond ;).
Installation
Run ./bin/install. Rerun whenever updating, as configuration files are locked at the last run time.
Git identities
In order to facilitate using multiple identities for Git, identity-specific configuration is omitted from the default global Git config. Instead, create a file alongside the config file (in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/) named identities akin to:
[identity "personal"]
name = John Doe
email = [email protected]
[identity "work"]
name = John Doe
email = [email protected]
sshIdentity = ~/.ssh/work/id_rsaThen use git identity passing the identity name to set in the local, per-repository configuration.
