This repository is where I store and share my personal dotfiles. The configuration files you'll find here are heavily customized for my personal needs and they follow what I'd call my personal preference; this means that you should NOT simply clone this repository and expect everything to work the way it should — HOWEVER, for any questions regarding what you can do with these dotfiles, the answer will be "yes", as the license is very permissive.

Managing Dotfiles

There are multiple ways to manage your dotfiles. I myself prefer to use Git; if you'd like to do the same as me, here's how you can manage your own dotfiles

$ git init --bare ~/.dotfiles
$ alias c
$ config config status.showUntrackedFiles no

Don't forget to add the config alias to your shell's rc file afterwards!

For more details, read this.
