Notes for myself on installing standard set of dotfiles.
Inspired by https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/dotfiles
Install zsh
1
sudo apt install zsh zsh-doc
Change shell to zsh
1
chsh -s /bin/zsh
Logout and back in, zsh will prompt if you want to set it up, select “0” for no setup.
Install Oh My Zsh
1
sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh)"
Install Dotfiles
Be sure to ssh into the host with agent forwarding (-A) enabled.
My dotfile README.md

2
3
git archive [email protected]:mikecarlton/dotfiles main -- \
README-dotfiles.md | sed -n -e '/^#BEGIN/,/^#END/p' > /tmp/install-dotfiles.sh
bash /tmp/install-dotfiles.sh main
Also should install keychain (along with a copy of id_ed25519 key).
1
sudo apt install keychain
and ydiff
On a Mac:
1
brew install ydiff
On linux:
1
2
curl -ksSL https://raw.github.com/ymattw/ydiff/master/ydiff.py | sudo tee /usr/local/bin/ydiff
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/ydiff
Will probably need to fix python:
1
sudo apt-get install python-is-python3
