This project contains all of the configuration files I use for all of my
Linux-based logins. When these files are linked to their appropriate places
(using the configure.sh
install script), my standard settings will be set up
on that computer. These settings include important environment variables,
terminal aliases, and scripts.
To install this project, run the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/garrettheath4/dotfiles-linux.git ~/dotfiles
cd ~/dotfiles
git submodule init && git submodule update
./configure.sh
