This is my repository for bootstraping dotfiles with Dotbot.
This is built so it can be run any number of times and will result in the same actions every time, so this can be added to a startup script, if desired.
To setup the dotfiles, clone this repository and run install:
$ mkdir ~/src
$ cd ~/src
$ git clone git@github.com:matthew-parlette/dotfiles.git
$ ~/src/dotfiles/install
- Use included bashrc (may require you to rename the original ~/.bashrc
- Set the prompt colors (part of bashrc)
- Pull liquidprompt repository and use it for the bash prompt (part of bashrc)
- Generate a config for i3 based on common and host specific configurations
If you're looking for inspiration for how to structure your dotfiles or what kinds of things you can include, you could take a look at some repos using Dotbot.
If you're using Dotbot and you'd like to include a link to your dotfiles here as an inspiration to others, please submit a pull request.

That being said, I would appreciate it if you could maintain a link back to Dotbot (or this repository) to help other people discover Dotbot.
