Organized dotfiles give you command line superpowers. This was heavily inspired by Getting Started With Dotfiles, which is a must-read.

1. git clone git@github.com:Aylr/dotfiles.git
2. IMPORTANT Backup your existing ~/.bash_profile, ~/.zshrc, and ~/.gitconfig or you will have data loss.
3. In the repo's .bash_profile, update the full path to this repo, including the trailing slash.
   • DOTFILE_DIR=/Users/taylor/repos/dotfiles/
4. Update the username and email address in the .gitconfig file.
5. From the repo directory, run brew.sh to install a few programs with brew.
6. From the repo directory, run install.sh. All this really does is drop symlinks into your home directory, which you can easily do yourself after you backup existing files!
