# dotfiles #

These are my dotfiles. They are the secret-sauce in my day-to-day workflow. In

this repo, you'll find my config for my favorite command line tools:

- [zsh], my shell of choice

- [git], my source control tool of choice

- [vim] (actually [neovim]) for text editing

- [tmux] for managing sessions and terminal splits

- And more!

[git]: https://git-scm.com/

[vim]: http://www.vim.org/

[neovim]: https://neovim.io/

[tmux]: https://github.com/tmux/tmux

## setup ##

After cloning this repo, running `setup/setup` will perform the entire setup

process. You can perform isolated parts of the setup process by running

individual scripts found in `setup`.

## rcm ##

This repo uses [rcm] for management. It's pretty neat, you should check it

out.

## repo organization ##

`rcm` will symlink all files into place, keeping the folder structure relative

to the tag root. However, our `rcrc` is explicitly ignoring a few things:

 - `Brewfile` contains our homebrew dependencies , and so doesn't need to be

   symlinked.

 - Anything in our `setup` directory is assumed to be part of the general

   setup process, and so will not be symlinked.

These ignore patterns are being controlled by the `EXCLUDES` key in my

[`rcrc`][rcrc].

[rcrc]: https://github.com/gfontenot/dotfiles/blob/main/rcrc

Additionally, I'm using the `UNDOTTED` key in my `rcrc` to make sure that

`Library` files aren't symlinked into `.Library`. This means I can do things

like add Xcode color schemes, or LaunchAgents into my dotfiles and have them

symlinked into place properly.

## attribution ##

This repo started life as a fork of [holman]'s dotfiles, but is completely

unrecognizable from his now.

Many scripts and configurations have been inspired by or outright stolen from

my colleagues at [thoughtbot]. Of special note, I've stolen many things from

the [thoughtbot dotfiles], as well as from [Gabe Berke-Williams], [Chris

Toomey], [Pat Brisbin], and [George Brocklehurst], among others that I'm sure

I'm forgetting.
