🐧 ^x3ro's Dotfiles

Welcome to my dotfiles repo 😺

💻 Setup a New Machine

Use chezmoi to clone this repo:

chezmoi init --ssh gitlab.com/x3ro

Or (for read-only mode)

chezmoi init gitlab.com/x3ro

🦄 Easy Setup

For an easy setup with bootstrapping and without yadm installed use:

curl -L https://gitlab.com/x3ro/dotfiles/-/raw/master/.local/subrepos/yadm/yadm | bash -s clone git@gitlab.com:x3ro/dotfiles.git --bootstrap

🔱 Yadm Classes

Set the machine class using yadm config local.class <class>

The following classes are available:

• _unknown_*_: (* is wildcard) Files that contain config that has been (but is not currently) in use and for which I have no idea if I will need them someday 🙈

💪 Update Subrepos

git-subrepo conflicts with yadm. The easiest way to update subrepos is by checking out the repo with git in a temporary directory and update subrepos there:

$ tmp="$(mktemp -d)"
$ git clone git@gitlab.com:x3ro/dotfiles.git "$tmp"
$ cd "$tmp"
$ git config user.name "^x3ro"
$ git config user.email "git@x3ro.dev"
$ git subrepo pull --all
$ git push
$ cd ~
$ rm -rf "$tmp"
$ yadm pull

🛠️ Useful Tools

• bat - A cat(1) clone with wings (see ~/.shellrc.d/cat-bat.sh)
• delta - A viewer for git and diff output
• exa - A modern replacement for ‘ls’ (see ~/.shellrc.d/ls-exa.sh)
• fd - A simple, fast and user-friendly alternative to 'find'
• ripgrep - An blazing fast alternative for find ("ripgrep recursively searches directories for a regex pattern while respecting your gitignore")

System Configuration

Font

Install the JetBrainsMono Nerd Font for font ligatures and tons of icons for eg. exa.
