trishume / dotfiles

My dotfiles for Linux and Mac.

Tristan does dotfiles

Based off of holman/dotfiles and spf13-vim

These may not immediately work on your system because of the assumption that you organize things in a folder called ~/Box like I do. If you change these paths things should work.

components

There's a few special files in the hierarchy.

• bin/: Anything in bin/ will get added to your $PATH and be made available everywhere.
• topic/*.zsh: Any files ending in .zsh get loaded into your environment.
• topic/*.symlink: Any files ending in *.symlink get symlinked into your $HOME. This is so you can keep all of those versioned in your dotfiles but still keep those autoloaded files in your home directory. These get symlinked in when you run rake install.
• topic/*.completion.sh: Any files ending in completion.sh get loaded last so that they get loaded after we set up zsh autocomplete functions.

add-ons

There are a few things I use to make my life awesome. They're not a required dependency, but if you install them they'll make your life a bit more like a bubble bath.

• If you want some more colors for things like ls, install grc: brew install grc.
• If you install the excellent rvm to manage multiple rubies, your current branch will show up in the prompt. Bonus.

dotfiles's Issues

sorry for bothering, could you please tell me how you organize .spacemacs configuration?

hello, I want to organize my dotfiles with git repo like you did, and i faced a problem:
i tried to using symbol link and hard links to link dotfile_repo/spacemacs to $HOME/.spacemacs,

• but seems git change files in each version control operation(inode number changes), so the hard link don't much works at this circumstances,
• and seems like emacs(using spacemacs) did not follow the symbol links. when i link $HOME/.spacemacs as a symbol link and lunch emacs, spacemacs try to create a new $HOME/.spacemacs.
  Putting (setq vc-follow-symbol-link t)' at the head of .emacs.d/init.el` still not working for me.

I notice that your spacemacs configuration at this repo looks like a symbol link, so, could you please tell me how you done with this?
