Dotfiles machine configuration script

Before starting, make sure the latest version of Xcode is installed and run at least once (to install command-line tools) from the Mac App Store.

Setup Git Keys

This is only required for a brand new machine, and is used to authenticate your computer with your GitHub account.

Create the key in the default directory:

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "Computer Name"

When it asks for a password, press enter for no password.

Copy the key to the clipboard:

pbcopy < ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub

Then go to Account Settings in GitHub and add this key to your account.

Full instructions for the above steps can be referenced from https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/Vortec4800/dotfiles.git && cd dotfiles && ./bootstrap.sh

To update, cd into your local dotfiles repository and then:

./bootstrap.sh

This will automatically pull any changes and update your machine.
