My custom dotfiles

Custom OS X config based on Mathias Bynens’s dotfiles

Installation

Warning: If you want to give these dotfiles a try, you should first fork this repository, review the code, and remove things you don’t want or need. Don’t blindly use my settings unless you know what that entails. Use at your own risk!

$ source bootstrap.sh

To update, cd into your local dotfiles repository and then:

$ source bootstrap.sh

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) takes place.

Here’s an example ~/.path file that adds /usr/local/bin to the $PATH:

$ export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$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:

# Git credentials
# Not in the repository, to prevent people from accidentally committing under my name

GIT_AUTHOR_NAME="example"
GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL="example@lin3s.com"

GIT_COMMITTER_NAME="$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"
git config --global user.name "$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"
GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL="$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL"
git config --global user.email "$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL"

Sensible OS X defaults

When setting up a new Mac, you may want to set some sensible OS X defaults:

Make the terminal better we neet to install Oh My Zsh:

When setting up a new Mac, you may want to install some common Homebrew formulae:
