These are mine, fork this repository as a reference. You can learn a lot by looking at how other people set up their dotfiles.\n\nThis repository managed with [Chezmoi](https://www.chezmoi.io/), is the configuration for my Debian-based headless servers.\n\n## 💎 Key Features\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e📂 Secure, templated dotfile management\u003c/summary\u003e\n\nThis repository uses [Chezmoi](https://www.chezmoi.io/) templates. Check the other sections.\n\nWhen you install it, your identity is stored in `~/.config/chezmoi/chezmoi.toml`. You can manually update these values by running: `chezmoi edit-config`.\n\nMany dot files are managed by [Chezmoi](https://www.chezmoi.io/)\n\n* `dot_curlrc`: [Curl](https://curl.se/) is used in command lines or scripts to transfer data\n* `dot_editorconfig`: [EditorConfig](https://editorconfig.org/) a file format that enable various text editors and IDEs to adhere to defined styles\n* `dot_tmux.conf`: [tmux](https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki) is a terminal multiplexer. It lets you switch easily between several programs in one terminal, detach them (they keep running in the background) and reattach them to a different terminal\n* `dot_wgetrc`: [GNU Wget](https://www.gnu.org/software/wget/) is a non-interactive commandline tool for retrieving files using HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and FTPS\n\n\u003e The reason that many of these file names start with a period and are therefore known as “dotfiles” is the accidental invention of [“hidden files” in 1997](https://linux-audit.com/linux-history-how-dot-files-became-hidden-files/).\n\u003c/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e🧩 Modular Zsh configuration with aliases and functions\u003c/summary\u003e\n\n[Zsh](https://www.zsh.org/) is a shell designed for interactive use, the files load order:\n\n1. `~/.zshenv` managed as dot_zshenv\n    * Environment variables loaded for all shells such as interactive, non-interactive, login, and scripts\n2. `~/.config/zsh/.zshrc` managed as dot_config/zsh/dot_zshrc\n    * Main config file for interactive shells\n3. `~/.config/zsh/aliases.zsh` managed as dot_config/zsh/aliases.zsh\n    * Additional configuration loaded via `.zshrc`\n4. `~/.config/zsh/functions.zsh` managed as dot_config/zsh/functions.zsh\n    * Additional configuration loaded via `.zshrc`\n5. `~/.config/starship.toml` managed as dot_config/starship.toml\n    * [Starship prompt](https://starship.rs/) loaded via `.zshrc`\n\nInstall zsh manually if you're not using `run_once_before_install-packages.sh.tmpl`\n\n1. `sudo apt install zsh`\n2. `chsh -s /bin/zsh`\n\nThe change takes effect on your next login (or open a new terminal session) and verify with `echo $SHELL`\n\u003c/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e🛠 Modern Tooling\u003c/summary\u003e\n\n* Standard `ls` is aliased to [Eza](https://eza.rocks/) for better readability:\n  * `--icons`: Display of icons for different file types with a [Nerd Font](https://www.nerdfonts.com/)\n  * `--git`: Shows Git status for files directly in the directory listing\n  * `--group-directories-first`: Keeps your view organized\n* Prompt: [Starship](https://starship.rs/) is gorgeous and works everywhere with Rust-powered\n* System info: [Fastfetch](https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch) is a maintained neofetch like tool\n\n\u003c/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e🔒 Hardened GIT \u0026 SSH configuration\u003c/summary\u003e\n\nCommit Signing: Git is configured to sign commits using SSH keys (ED25519)\n\n* [GitHub](https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/managing-commit-signature-verification/about-commit-signature-verification) \u0026 [GitLab] (https://docs.gitlab.com/user/project/repository/signed_commits/ssh/) documentation\n\nMultiplexing: Hardened ~/.ssh/config with ControlMaster enabled for lightning-fast subsequent connections to the same host\n\nPrivacy: Sensitive hostnames and IPs are offloaded to ~/.ssh/config.local (ignored by Git)\n\nModular [GIT](https://git-scm.com/) configuration:\n\n* `~/.config/git/config` managed as a Chezmoi's template `/dot_config/config.tmpl`\n  * Main config file, template information are collected during the quick start\n* `~/.config/git/aliases` managed as `/dot_config/aliases`\n  * Additional configuration loaded via `~/.config/git/config`\n* `~/.config/git/gitignore_global` managed as `/dot_config/gitignore_global`\n  * Used by GIT without a specific configuration\n\nModular [SSH](https://www.openssh.org/) configuration:\n\n* `~/.ssh/config` managed as a Chezmoi's template `dot_ssh/config.tmpl`\n  * Main config file, template information are collected during the quick start\n* `~/.ssh/authorized_keys` managed as a Chezmoi's template `dot_ssh/authorized_keys.tmpl`\n  * Contains a list of public keys that are permitted to access that specific user account remotely\n  * Include one static key and keys fetched from GitHub\n* `~/.ssh/sockets` managed as `dot_ssh/sockets`\n  * Support Multiplexing for lightning-fast subsequent connections to the same host\n\n\u003c/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e✍️ Vim configuration with colors cheme support\u003c/summary\u003e\n\n[Configured](https://github.com/bhdicaire/dotFiles/blob/main/dot_vimrc) for professional sysadmin work:\n\n* Mac classic color scheme [modified by Drew Neil](https://github.com/altercation/vim-colors-solarized) for a clean, light-background aesthetic\n* Support for termguicolors, optimized for [Ghostty](https://ghostty.org/)\n* Swaps and backups disabled to keep your home directory clean\n\n\u003c/details\u003e\n\n## 🚀 Quick Start\n\nOn a fresh Debian install, run:\n\n```bash\nsh -c \"$(curl -fsLS get.chezmoi.io)\" -- -b ~/.config/bin init --apply bhdicaire\n```\n\n① Installs [Chezmoi](https://www.chezmoi.io/) to manage your dotFiles\n\n② Automatically triggers the [run_once_before_install-packages.sh](https://github.com/bhdicaire/dotFiles/blob/main/run_once_before_install-packages.sh.tmpl) script to install missing components\n\n③ Prompts you for information in order to generate localized configs\n\n* Email for GIT configuration\n* Full name for GIT signature\n* Hostname for specific configuration items\n\n```text\n.\n├── dot_config/\n│   ├── git/          #
