Because I'm homesick.

Installation

Clone the repository:

$ cd ~/Projects
$ git clone https://github.com/timjb/dotfiles.git

Init submodules:

$ cd dotfiles
$ git submodule init
$ git submodule update

Create symlinks. ./install.sh does that for you.

On NixOS, when installing on a new machine:

$ cd /path/to/this/repo/nixos
$ sudo mv /etc/nixos/configuration.nix my-new-machine-configuration.nix
$ sudo mv /etc/nixos/hardware-configuration.nix my-new-machine-hardware-configuration.nix
$ ln -s my-new-machine-configuration.nix configuration.nix
# edit my-new-machine-configuration.nix
$ sudo rm /etc/nixos
$ ln -s /path/to/this/repo/nixos /etc/nixos
