Config gnpar

Based on this guy's setup.

Setup on a new system

Add alias:

alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles/ --work-tree=$HOME'

Clone bare repo:

git clone --bare [email protected]:gnpar/dotfiles.git $HOME/.dotfiles

Checkout the files:

config checkout

And don't show untracked files:

config config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no

Working with repo

The same as using git, but use config instead. So config status/add/commit/push as necessary.

To see what files are in repo: config ls-files

Pick and choose

There's two ways to get a single config file:

1. Clone the bare repo and setup the alias as detailed above, then do:

   config checkout -- <file>
   

2. Find the URL to the raw file on github and download it with wget or curl:

   wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gnpar/dotfiles/master/.vimrc
