Installation

1. To install these, make an alias and the following git ignore so that cloning goes well:

   alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles/ --work-tree=$HOME' && \
     echo ".dotfiles" >> .gitignore

2. Then clone this thing:

   git clone --bare [email protected]:~trevdev/dotfiles $HOME/.dotfiles

3. Move conflicting/existing files

   mkdir -p .config-backup && \
   config checkout 2>&1 | egrep "\s+\." | awk {'print $1'} | \
   xargs -I{} mv {} .config-backup/{}

4. Then checkout the config && ignore untracked files

   config checkout && config config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no

5. Don't forget to initialize submodules and source the updated shell env

   config submodule update --init --recursive
   source .bashrc
