+
+## Start
+Here is how you start using this setup.
+
+Create a folder ~/.dot which is a bare repository that will track our dotfiles.
+
+Create an alias for git called 'dot' to interact with our dotfile repo.
+
+Set a flag to hide files we are not explicitly tracking yet. Which is everything.
+
+Add the alias definition to your .bashrc.
+
+```bash
+git init --bare $HOME/.dot
+alias dot='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dot/ --work-tree=$HOME'
+dot config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no
+echo "alias dot='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dot/ --work-tree=$HOME'" >> $HOME/.bashrc
+```
+
+Now add all of your dotfiles. Here is a example.
+
+`dot add .vimrc`
+
+## Setup
+Here is how you can migrate this setup to another system.
+
+```bash
+git clone --bare https://myrepos.dev/Randy-Jordan/dot.git $HOME/.dot
+function dot {
+   /usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dot/ --work-tree=$HOME $@
+}
+mkdir -p .dot-backup
+dot checkout
+if [ $? = 0 ]; then
+    echo "Checked out dotfiles.";
+    else
+        echo "Backing up pre-existing dot files.";
+        dot checkout 2>&1 | egrep "\s+\." | awk {'print $1'} | xargs -I{} mv {} .config-backup/{}
+fi;
+dot checkout
+dot config status.showUntrackedFiles no
+```
