Usage
Just copy and paste, or follow the guide below.
If you're starting out as root, do not login as user until you've altered /etc/xdg/user-dirs.defaults
For example, you can see the custom configuration, or the default. Marked folders are mapped to xdg features. The ones linked to repositories need to be downloaded as needed. They are as follows:
- DESKTOP=gui
- DOWNLOAD=dl
- TEMPLATES=eg
- MARKDOWN=md
- PUBLICSHARE=pub
- DOCUMENTS=media/docs
- MUSIC=media/music
- PICTURES=media/pics
- VIDEOS=media/vids
- PDF=media/pdf
- CAD=cad
- REPO=repo
- SCRIPTS=sh
- VIRTUALMACHINES=vm
Once complete, assign the appropriate privileges, and login as the user. Run the command:
git init --bare $HOME/.dot To create our config folder.
alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dot/ --work-tree=$HOME To set an alias to interact with our config.
config config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no So every file in $HOME is not tracked, just the ones we add.
echo "alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dot/ --work-tree=$HOME'" >> $HOME/.bashrc Adds the alias to our bashrc.
TODO: Set up script to pipe into bash for convenience.
