# Jarrett's dotfiles
## Installation
### Using Git and the bootstrap script
You can clone the repository wherever you want. The bootstrapper script will pull in the latest version and copy the files to your home folder.
### Git-free install
To install these dotfiles without Git:
```bash
cd; curl -#L https://github.com/kuatsure/dotfiles/tarball/master | tar -xzv --strip-components 1 --exclude={README.md,bootstrap.sh,LICENSE-MIT.txt}
```
To update later on, just run that command again.
### Specify the `$PATH`
If `~/.path` exists, it will be sourced along with the other files, before any feature testing (such as [detecting which version of `ls` is being used](https://github.com/mathiasbynens/dotfiles/blob/aff769fd75225d8f2e481185a71d5e05b76002dc/.aliases#L21-26)) takes place.
Here’s an example `~/.path` file that adds `~/utils` to the `$PATH`:
```bash
export PATH="$HOME/utils:$PATH"
```
### Add custom commands without creating a new fork
If `~/.extra` exists, it will be sourced along with the other files. You can use this to add a few custom commands without the need to fork this entire repository, or to add commands you don’t want to commit to a public repository.
My `~/.extra` looks something like this:
```bash
# Git credentials
# Not in the repository, to prevent people from accidentally committing under my name
GIT_AUTHOR_NAME="Jarrett Drouillard"
GIT_COMMITTER_NAME="$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"
git config --global user.name "$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"
GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL="jarrett@thestyl.us"
GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL="$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL"
git config --global user.email "$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL"
```
You could also use `~/.extra` to override settings, functions and aliases from my dotfiles repository. It’s probably better to [fork this repository](https://github.com/kuatsure/dotfiles/fork) instead, though.
### Sensible OS X defaults
When setting up a new Mac, you may want to set some sensible OS X defaults:
```bash
./.osx
```
### Sensible Global Npm Packages
When setting up a new Mac, you may want to set some sensible global Npm packages:
```bash
./.npmGlobal
```
### Sensible Atom Packages
When setting up a new Mac, you may want to set some sensible [Atom](https://atom.io/) packages:
```bash
./.apmPackages
```
_Note:_ Keep in mind that if you use the [beta channel](https://atom.io/beta) of Atom, you'll have to update `apm` to `apm-beta`. Also, your `atom` cli will be `atom-beta`.
### Install Homebrew formulae
When setting up a new Mac, you may want to install some common [Homebrew](http://brew.sh/) formulae (after installing Homebrew, of course):
```bash
./brew.sh
```
