Eric Clemmons' Dotfiles

Fork of Mathias's dotfiles primarily for Node/PHP development. Compare the differences.

Dotfiles (~/.*) are environment & application configuration files.

Installation

First, we need to pull down this repository & sync it's dotfiles into our home (~/) directory.

With Git

Clone this repository into ~/.dotfiles.

This should prompt you to install Xcode Tools.

$ git clone https://github.com/ericclemmons/dotfiles.git .dotfiles
$ cd .dotfiles
$ ./install

Without Git

To install these dotfiles without Git:

cd; curl -#L https://github.com/ericclemmons/dotfiles/tarball/master | tar -xzv --strip-components 1 --exclude={README.md,install,LICENSE-MIT.txt}

To update later on, just run that command again.

Updating

$ ./install

Alternatively, to update while avoiding the confirmation prompt:

set -- -f; ./install
