#Dotfiles

This repo is used to save and sync my dotfiles between differents machines. When cloning and executing the scripts for the first time, the current dotfiles are saved and remplaced by symlinks to the ones in the repo.

The instructions belows are a reminder on how to use the scripts.

Installation

Clone the repo

On a new system clone the repo under ~/.dotfiles

git clone https://github.com:statox/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles

It is possible to add to $PATH the path to the scripts.

export PATH=$PATH:path/to/.dotfiles/scripts

Select which files to manage

In ./scripts/files_list

Select the files you want to simlink and keep under this repo. Not wanted files can be commented with "#"

Execute the script

Execute the script

./scripts/set-dotfiles.sh

And voila

The dotfiles in your home directory are now symlinked to the files in ~/.dotfiles! Originals dotfiles aren't deleted they are copied under ~/.dotfiles/saved-dotfiles
