3. Setup git aliases
4. Setup system defaults (finder behavior, full keyboard access, disable natural scrolling)
5. Remap keys (by default right command to option)
6. Share ssh configs

On Apple M1, or if the installation fails because cryptography wheel cannot be found you might want to build it from sources:

https://cryptography.io/en/latest/installation.html

brew install [email protected] rust
