# dotfiles 

there's no place like $HOME

## Setup

This is all inspired & based upon https://developer.atlassian.com/blog/2016/02/best-way-to-store-dotfiles-git-bare-repo/.

From scratch (make sure Bash & Git are up to date first—looking at you macOS defaults 🙄):

- Go $HOME: `cd ~`

- Clone repo:

  - HTTPS: `git clone --bare https://github.com/Pinjasaur/dotfiles $HOME/.cfg`

  - SSH: `git clone --bare [email protected]:Pinjasaur/dotfiles.git $HOME/.cfg`

- Add `cfg` alias: `alias cfg='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.cfg/ --work-tree=$HOME'`

- Make backup directory: `mkdir -p .cfg-backup`

- Checkout dotfiles: `cfg checkout`

    - If conflicts: `cfg checkout 2>&1 | egrep "\s+\." | awk {'print $1'} | xargs -I{} mv {} .cfg-backup/{}`

    - Re-checkout: `cfg checkout`

- Don't show untracked: `cfg config status.showUntrackedFiles no`

- Update submodules: `cfg submodule update --init --recursive`

- Create `.bash.local` & `.gitconfig.local` [from here](https://gist.github.com/Pinjasaur/d058460e2c474054e655f86ad511c6a1) (sorry, they're for my 👀 only)

### macOS specifics

- `git` may be `/usr/local/bin/git`, `/opt/homebrew/bin/git`, etc

- `brew install reattach-to-user-namespace`

- `set-option -g default-command "reattach-to-user-namespace -l $SHELL"` in `.tmux.conf.local`

### Submodule maintenance

- Pull in submodule changes: `cfg submodule update --init --recursive`

- Update submodules to latest: `cfg submodule update --remote --merge`

- Check submodule status: `cfg submodule status --recursive`

## Customizations

Create a `.bash.local` for setting up any shell-specic settings (aliases, functions,

exports, etc.).

There are also local configs for Vim (`.vimrc.local`) and tmux

(`.tmux.conf.local`) where you can place custom local settings.

## Noteworthy

### PuTTY

May need to change settings to get 256 colors.

  - PuTTY: Connection > Data > Terminal-type `xterm-256color`
