## Starting Fresh
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Creates a folder ~/.dot which is a bare repository that will track our files.
|
|
git init --bare $HOME/.dot
|
|
|
|
# create an alias config which we will use to interact with our dotfile repo.
|
|
alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dot/ --work-tree=$HOME'
|
|
|
|
# Set a LOCAL REPO flag to hide files we are not explicitly tracking yet,(all).
|
|
dot config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no
|
|
|
|
# Make sure our alias is set.
|
|
echo "alias dot='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dot/ --work-tree=$HOME'" >> $HOME/.bashrc
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Migrating
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone --bare https://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 {} .dot-backup/{}
|
|
fi;
|
|
dot checkout
|
|
dot config status.showUntrackedFiles no
|
|
|
|
```
