MacOS Setup

This is a collection of applications, scripts, and configuration I use when setting up a new Mac.

Terminal Theme - download from http://color.smyck.org/
- Also consider the Dracula theme https://draculatheme.com/terminal/
In Terminal.app, Preferences->Settings, select the Keyboard tab. Ensure "Use Option Key as Meta" is checked.
Increase font size in Preferences to 18pt
Add to ~/.bash_profile to make terminal prompt a yellow dollar sign
- export PS1="\[\033[33m\]$\[\033[m\]"
Install homebrew
Install nodejs (possibly with nvm)
Change the terminal text http://stackoverflow.com/a/26232411/4280755
Install Command Lines Tools for IDE (VSCode)
open /Users/danseethaler/Library/Application\ Support/Code/User
Add git by running git --version in terminal
- https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Getting-Started-Installing-Git
Setup git auto-completion
- https://git-scm.com/book/en/v1/Git-Basics-Tips-and-Tricks
- Seems like the source ~/git-completion.bash code may need to go in the ~/.bash_profile instead of the .bashrc file.

The .gitconfig file in this project can be used directly by the OS by adding the folowing configuration to ~/.gitconfig:

[include]
    path = ~/Developer/mac-init/.gitconfig

To enable git-recent command simply:

copy the git-recent file in this local repo it to your /usr/local/bin dir with sudo cp git-recent /usr/local/bin/git-recent
make the file executable with sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/git-recent

Install git-checkout-interactive globally with npm i -g git-checkout-interactive

Change permission for .git_actions.js with chmod 755 .git_actions.js

Add to post-checkout to auto-pull certain branches:

BRANCH=$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)
if [[ "${BRANCH}" == "develop" || "${BRANCH}" == "master" ]]; then
  git pull -p
fi
