Altari's Dotfiles Repository

How to use this repositories

• commit the alias to your .bashrc or .zshrc

  alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles/ --work-tree=$HOME'

• your source repository ignores the folder where you'll clone it

  echo ".dotfiles" >> .gitignore

• clone dotfiles into a bare repository in a "dot" folder of your '$HOME'

  git clone --bare https://github.com/AltairShmily/dotfiles.git $HOME/.dotfiles

• define the alias in the current shell scope

  alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles/ --work-tree=$HOME'

• checkout the actual content from the bare repository to your '$HOME'

  config checkout

• set the flag 'showUntrackedFiles' to 'no' on this local repository

  config config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no

• now you can type 'config' commands to add and update the dotfiles

  config status
  config add .zshrc
  config commit -m "Add zshrc"
  config add .bashrc
  config commit -m "Add bashrc"
  config push --set-upstream origin main
