Dotfiles
This repository contains useful (config) files.
There are two branches:
main contains dotfiles intended to be used on all kinds of machines
and can be thought of as a "minimal" or "server" version.
It targets Debian 13
but is kept working on older versions and other distributions as well.
desktop is (re-)based on top of main
and adds configurations for
GNOME 48+
on X11
and many applications,
be it end-user software or common development utilities.
SSH Keys
If I told you to go here and copy/paste my public ssh keys
to give me access to one of your servers,
find them
either here
or here.
Installation
Simply run:
curl https://code.webartifex.de/alexander/dotfiles/raw/branch/main/.local/bin/dotfiles-install > dotfiles-install && sh ./dotfiles-install && rm ./dotfiles-install
or
wget https://code.webartifex.de/alexander/dotfiles/raw/branch/main/.local/bin/dotfiles-install -O dotfiles-install && sh ./dotfiles-install && rm ./dotfiles-install
This downloads a simple installation script
and then executes it.
The script's only dependency is git.
So, it should not be too hard to get this going.
The repository is cloned as a bare repository into ~/.local/share/dotfiles
and its files are checked out into ~/ directly.
Pre-existing files are backed up to ~/.local/state/dotfiles-backups beforehand.
Afterwards, the files can be managed with the
dotfiles alias,
for example, dotfiles status or dotfiles pull.
The above commands install the main variant. To install the desktop variant, switch to the desktop branch first.
Normally, I advise against executing shell scripts from the internet, but this one is short enough to be read even by beginners. So, convince yourself that it is not harmful!
Shells
The config files in this repository are optimized for usage with
GNU's Bourne again shell,
or bash for short,
and the popular zsh.
