Configuration files managed with rcm.
Install and set up config:
git clone https://github.com/doubledup/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
./rcignore/setup.sh
Create an ssh key for the machine, add it to Github and switch the repo to ssh:
mksshkey
gh auth login --git-protocol ssh --hostname github.com
git remote set-url origin [email protected]:doubledup/dotfiles.git
For machine-local kitty, fish and neovim config, add '.local' before the file extension and save it
in the same place. eg. use ~/.config/kitty/kitty.local.conf
for kitty config you only want on your
current machine, or ~/.config/fish/config.local.fish
for fish shell config.
After generating a GPG key, use it to sign commits by adding this to
~/.config/fish/config.local.fish
:
set GIT_SIGNINGKEY <signingkey>
abbr gc 'git commit -v -S$GIT_SIGNINGKEY'
This avoids committing a key id in the global gitconfig variable user.signingkey
, but still sets a
default for all repositories that you can override, e.g. with direnv
.
To enable the custom stylesheet, go to the about:config
page and set
toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets
to true.
Run updateAll
to update everything.
MacOS packages are managed with a global Brewfile
. This replaces imperative commands like brew install
with 2 steps: update the Brewfile
, then ensure that exactly the packages in the
Brewfile
are installed.
To edit the global Brewfile
:
- Add a package:
brew bundle --global add package
- Remove unused packages:
brew bundle --global remove package
Then ensure all Brewfile packages, and only those packages, are installed:
brew bundle --global --cleanup
List explicitly installed packages with brew leaves
or review the Brewfile
.
When pulling updates, run rcdn
to remove all known symlinks, then pull updates, then run rcup
:
cd ~/.dotfiles && rcdn -t mac && git pull && RCRC=~/.dotfiles/rcrc rcup -t mac && cd -
Detect broken symlinks potentially left behind by incorrect use of rcm:
find ~ -type l ! -exec test -e {} \; -print | rg -v '/Library/' | rg -v '/.cache/'
Verify that the symlinks are unused (e.g. chroots and containers can appear to contain broken symlinks) and remove them.
sudo update-alternatives --set x-terminal-emulator /usr/bin/kitty
After installing Docker, add yourself to the docker group with
sudo usermod -aG docker doubledup
and restart.
