Kevin's dotfiles, forked from Paul Irish.

mathias's readme is awesome. go read it.

This repo is mostly for me but you're welcome to make suggestions. Mathias's is the project to fork. I'm mostly catching up to him, @cowboy, and @gf3.

install the neccessary apps

My basic setup is captured in install-deps.sh which adds homebrew, z, nave, etc.

private config

Toss it into a file called .extra which you do not commit to this repo and just keep in your ~/

I do something nice with my PATH there:

# PATH like a bawss
      PATH=/opt/local/bin
PATH=$PATH:/opt/local/sbin
PATH=$PATH:/bin
PATH=$PATH:~/.rvm/bin
PATH=$PATH:~/code/git-friendly
# ...

export PATH

Syntax highlighting

…is really important. even for these files.

Install Dotfiles Syntax Highlighting via Sublime Text 2 Package Control

Sensible OS X defaults

When setting up a new Mac, you may want to set some sensible OS X defaults:

./.osx

Similar projects

I recommend getting a .jshintrc and .editorconfig defined for all your projects.

Sublime Text 2 config

(Special thanks to Adding Sublime Text 2 Settings, Themes, and Plugins to Dotfiles)

For each machine you want to config, make sure you: Move these folders from ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 2 to the Sublime Text 2 directory in dotfiles.

cd ~/dotfiles/Sublime\ Text\ 2 mv ~/Library/Application\ Support/Sublime\ Text\ 2/Installed\ Packages . mv ~/Library/Application\ Support/Sublime\ Text\ 2/Packages . mv ~/Library/Application\ Support/Sublime\ Text\ 2/Pristine\ Packages .

Next create symbolic links in the ~/LibraryApplication Support/Sublime\ Text\ 2 directory to the new location of the settings directories.

cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/Sublime\ Text\ 2 ln -s ~/dotfiles/Sublime\ Text\ 2/Installed\ Packages ./Installed\ Packages ln -s ~/dotfiles/Sublime\ Text\ 2/Packages ./Packages ln -s ~/dotfiles/Sublime\ Text\ 2/Pristine\ Packages ./Pristine\ Packages

Installation

If installing for the first time...

git clone https://github.com/indefinit/dotfiles.git && cd dotfiles && ./install-deps.sh

then

./synch.sh

To update later on, just run the sync again.
