My Dotfiles

Based on this helpful guide from Atlassian.

Installation

alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.cfg/ --work-tree=$HOME'
git clone --bare [email protected]:tlockney/dotfiles.git $HOME/.cfg
config checkout
config config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no

If you get errors because of existing files, run:

mkdir -p .config-backup && \
config checkout 2>&1 | egrep "\s+\." | awk {'print $1'} | \
xargs -I{} mv {} .config-backup/{}

Delete .config-backup once you've verified nothing important will be lost.

Tips

• Shouldn't need to ever do this again, but to be safe, sharing the steps to create this repo:

git init --bare $HOME/.cfg
alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.cfg/ --work-tree=$HOME'

• Get all currently tracked files:

(cd $HOME; config ls-files)

• Run 1password secret injection on all .op_tpl files:

for file in $(cd $HOME; config ls-files | grep '.op_tpl'); do
  out=${file%%.op_tpl}
  op inject -i $HOME/$file -o $HOME/$out
done
