Dotfiles

personal environment files

Requirements

import your gpg keys

Usage

Clone the repo with this chezmoi command line:

sh -c "$(curl -fsLS git.io/chezmoi)" -- init --apply fredericrous
#OR: chezmoi init https://github.com/fredericrous/dotfiles.git

Apply dotfiles on the machine with

chezmoi apply -v

During the execution of chezmoi apply, you'll get prompted for passwords. Without the passwords you should just remove the files that are prefixed by encrypted_ and private_. Otherwise, have a look at section Data Protection.

Updating dotfiles

To see the differences and resolve the conflict, use the commands:

chezmoi diff
chezmoi merge <file-from-diff>

When the files from the local changed and you just want to override the repository, run:

chezmoi add <file>

It is the same command that is used to add new dotfiles to the repo.

When the files from the repository changed, run

chezmoi apply

apply will add the files that aren't present in the home folder. It will asks for every file that has a diff if it should override it. The command chezmoi merge <file> helps resolving conflicts before running apply again.
