dotfiles

These are the dotfiles I use on my systems and development environments.

Installation

To install these dotfiles:

1. Clone this repository with Git.
2. Setup the dotfiles:

   • If you're on a Unix-based system (Linux, macOS, Windows Subsystem for Linux):

     1. SSH_AUTH_SOCK="${SSH_AUTH_SOCK:-}" ./setup.sh

   • If you're on Windows:

     1. setup-windows.ps1 from a Powershell shell on Windows.

All the dotfiles and binaries will be symlinked to their destinations so you can update them just by pulling the latest changes.

Shell customizations

The dotfiles include customization and configuration files for different shells.

• The scripts in the .all directory are executed by all the shells.

The dotfiles include the following Git hooks:

• commit-msg that adds a Change-Id to the commit message, if necessary. Useful when working with Gerrit.
