Project Overview

I have put this off for too long. It’s painful to think how many revisions of my dot-files I’ve wasted by not doing a better job at keeping track of them throughout the years. The main motivation for creating this repository today is for my emacs files. I seem to have wildly different config files at work vs. at home. No more.

Features Files

1. emacs files
   • .emacs - Main configuration file.
   • .emacs.d/* - Modular inclusion of various modules.

Installing

1. Checkout the repository to a temporary location git clone [email protected]:jonEbird/dotfiles.git /tmp/dotfiles
2. Copy all of the contents into your home directory
   With the “–backup –suffix=.orig” options, files being overridden are backed up with a .orig extension.

   rsync -avn --backup --suffix=.orig /tmp/dotfiles/ ~/
       

3. Verify

   cd; git status
