This repo contains my modified configuration files for bash and some other applications. I have modified them to suit my preferences by including useful aliases (shortened commands) and functions. Feel free to chop and change to suit you!
$ git clone https://github.com/lintonfisher/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
$ cd ~/.dotfiles/scripts
$ ./install.shNote: Make sure to clone the file to
~/.dotfilesor move it after you've cloned it.
The install script backs all of the original files up to ~/.dotfiles/backup and appends _backup to the filename. To restore the backups, run the restore_backup.sh script, which will remove the symbolic links to ~/.dotfiles and restore the _backup files.
$ cd ~/.dotfiles/scripts
$ ./restore_backup.shNote: You probably shouldn't run the
restore_backup.shscript if you haven't already run theinstall.shscript.
Manuall install is good if you don't want to use all of the files in this repo.
Basically clone the repo somewhere then move the files you want to use to your home ($HOME/~) directory:
$ git clone https://github.com/lintonfisher/dotfiles.git /tmp/dotfiles
$ cp /tmp/dotfiles/* ~Note: Manual install will not backup your original files.
Suggestions are welcome! If you have any ideas on how to improve the install/restore scripts, or have any useful aliases, please feel free to open a pull-request.
If you have any issues with the install/restore process, please feel free to open an issue and I'll do my best to sort it out.
