Tilde

Version N+1 of my dotfiles repository, combined with setup script (http://github.com/cceckman/debbie).

There's a few different cases where I want my dotfiles deployed.

  1. If I'm temporarily hopping to a host via SSH, I want to have a few default options set (EDITOR=vim, set -o vi).

  2. For hosts that I "own", I'd like to make some sticky modifications: install tmux and zsh, set zsh as the shell, and maybe install a couple other things.

    "Own" can be identified from context: username is cceckman, and I have sudo access.

  3. Finally, for hosts that I'm going to be on locally / persistently / regularly, I want to install a whole raft of programs, dotfiles, etc.

Planned strategy

  1. Adopt and adapt @aimeeble's pssh script for this purpose. I might want to use the ControlPersist version with scp to avoid relying on socat being installed.
  2. Shallow-clone Tilde via HTTP. Link a minimal set of files / directories in place.
  3. Do (2); then replace the remote with an ssh remote and upgrade.
