## Introduction
Dotfiles are usually hidden config files that are easily transportable and
sharable between installations of *nix operating systems.
Mine are a collection of little things everywhere that make up a fully fledged
and development oriented setup.

## Installation
> To be used on a fresh install.
> Make sure to get every dependencies beforehand.
### Step 1: make the magic alias
The goal is to create and get an alias for a bare git repo. The alias to access
it is `dotfiles` instead of plain `git`. It avoids conflict with other git repos
in your ~/ folder.
```Bash
echo "alias dotfiles='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles --work-tree=$HOME'" >> $HOME/.zshrc
```
Don't forget to launch a new shell to update the modifications.
### Step 2: hide the .dotfiles folder from git
Create a .gitignore and ignore .dotfiles
```Bash
echo ".dotfiles" >> .gitignore
```
### Step 3: clone my .dotfiles
Yank everything !
```Bash
git clone --bare https://github.com/notKamui/dotfiles $HOME/.dotfiles
```
### Step 4: checkout to the config
Apply the config.
```Bash
dotfiles checkout
```
If there's an error message, it's probably due to an existing .zshrc or
.gitignore. If so, yeet them and checkout again.\
Then, hide the untracked files.
```Bash
dotfiles config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no
```
### Step 5: update the cache
You need to update the cache to make sure the fonts in .fonts are installed properly
```Bash
fc-cache -v
```
