Dotfiles

My OS X configuration files and scripts.

Installation

The installation requires Git which comes standard with Xcode or the Command Line Developer Tools.

Installing these dotfiles will overwrite already existing files in your home directory. The bootstrap script will prompt you before installing the dotfiles. Run the following commands to install:

git clone https://github.com/joeploijens/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
source bootstrap

To update, cd into your local dotfiles repository and run the bootstrap script again:

cd ~/.dotfiles
source bootstrap

Features

Homebrew

I recommend installing Homebrew on a Mac.

When setting up a new Mac, install some useful Homebrew formulae (after installing Homebrew first, of course):

brew bundle ~/.brewfile

OS X Defaults

On a new Mac you may want to set some sane OS X defaults by running the osx-defaults script. You can find this script in scripts/.

cd ~/.dotfiles/scripts
./osx-defaults
