Alternatively you can run the script scripts/bootstrap
Note: this installs all my default tools, so make sure you want them all!
Clone repository into home folder:
git clone git@github.com:mikkel-ol/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles
Install the dotfiles with rcm
:
env RCRC=$HOME/dotfiles/rcrc rcup
After the initial installation, you can run rcup
without the one-time variable
RCRC
being set (rcup
will symlink the repo's rcrc
to ~/.rcrc
for future
runs of rcup
). See
example.
This command will create symlinks for config files in your home directory.
Setting the RCRC
environment variable tells rcup
to use standard
configuration options:
- Exclude the
README.md
,README-ES.md
andLICENSE
files, which are part of thedotfiles
repository but do not need to be symlinked in. - Give precedence to personal overrides which by default are placed in
~/dotfiles-local
- Please configure the
rcrc
file if you'd like to make personal overrides in a different directory
From time to time you should pull down any updates to these dotfiles, and run
rcup
to link any new files. Note You must run
rcup
after pulling to ensure that all files in plugins are properly installed,
but you can safely run rcup
multiple times so update early and update often!
