# John's dotfiles



Personal config files for Bash, Windows PowerShell, PowerShell Core and Vim/Neovim. Works on Linux/Windows/WSL/Cygwin/Git Bash.

Good cross platform configuration that works similar on different operatingsystems.



## Install

To install these dotfiles and [chezmoi](https://www.chezmoi.io) which is the software used to easily manage them, just run these commands on a new machine:



### Linux / Unix

As your normal user in your home dir run:

```sh

sh -c "$(curl -fsLS get.chezmoi.io)" -- init --apply JohnEricson

```

If you get questions about entering username/password try this command instead:

```sh

sh -c "$(curl -fsLS get.chezmoi.io)" -- init --apply --guess-repo-url=false https://github.com/JohnEricson/dotfiles.git

```

The new config for bash will be used next time you login. To refresh your current session with the new config run:

```sh

. ~/.bashrc

```

#### Alternative one-liner

This both installs these dotfiles and [chezmoi](https://www.chezmoi.io) as well as refresh your current session with the new bash config:

```sh

. <(curl -sL https://raw.github.com/JohnEricson/dotfiles/main/install.sh)

```



### Windows

This installs [chezmoi](https://www.chezmoi.io) in the official way in your `~/bin` dir. Same way as it's installed on Linux.



Start PowerShell as your normal user and run:

```powershell

Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope CurrentUser

```

After this in your home dir run (This allows your user to run *.ps1 scripts):

```powershell

(irm -useb https://get.chezmoi.io/ps1) | powershell -c -

```

Then run:

```powershell

~/bin/chezmoi init --apply JohnEricson

```

Close your PowerShell window and open a new one to refresh your shell with the new config.



## Manage configuration

This configuration creates an alias `cm` that calls the `chezmoi` command. This is to make chezmoi easier to work with.



### Update configuration to latest version on a machine

As your normal user run:

```sh

cm update

```



## Git aliases



### Install

1) Add this to your `~/.gitconfig` file:

```

[include]

   path = .gitaliases

```

### How to use

The git aliases are exposed both in git and in bash so you can for example use `s` for `git status` like this:

#### bash

```bash

gs

```

#### git/PowerShell

```shell

git s

```
