My config requires evil-mode, org-mode and use-package. If you want to use it, make sure you have at least previously installed use-package. A minimal working ~/.emacs can look like this:
;; Change to your .emacs.d/ directory accordingly
(setq user-emacs-directory "/home/trajanus/.emacs.d")
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("gnu" . "http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/"))
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/"))
(package-initialize)
(require 'package)
(require 'use-package)
(use-package org
:ensure t)
(use-package evil
:ensure t)
(evil-mode 1)
;; Change to the path where you cloned the config to
(org-babel-load-file "/home/trajanus/.emacs.d/myinit.org")
