# dotfiles
Your dotfiles are how you personalize your system. These are mine. This repository is based in the original dotfiles
promoted by [@holman](http://github.com/holman).
## Install
```sh
$ git clone https://github.com/igalarzab/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
$ cd ~/.dotfiles
$ python bootstrap.py
$ cd packages
$ ./install.sh
```
This will symlink the appropriate files in `.dotfiles` to your home directory. Everything is configured and tweaked
within `~/.dotfiles`.
## Components
Everything's built around topic areas. If you're adding a new area to your forked dotfiles — say, "Java" — you can
simply add a `java` directory and put files in there. There's a few special files in the hierarchy:
- **bin/**: Anything in `bin/` will get added to your `$PATH` and be made available
- **topic/\*.xsh**: Any files ending in `.xsh` get loaded into your environment
- **topic/\*.symlink**: Any files ending in `*.symlink` get symlinked into your `$HOME`
- **topic/\*.configsymlink**: Any files ending in `*.configsymlink` get symlinked into your `$HOME/.config`.
- **topic/\*.launchagent**: Any files ending in `*.launchagent` get symlinked into your `$HOME/Library/LaunchAgents` and
load with `launchctl` (in OSX).
## Config
You should be able to extend your config without having to modify the files of the repo. For example, for configuring
your git information, just create a `~/.gitconfig-local` file with the following content:
```
[user]
name = John Doe
email = [email protected]
signingkey = my-key-id
helper = osxkeychain
[github]
user = john.doe
```
