Updated, more minimalist version of my personal dotfiles. Just the basics, just what I use everyday. Customizations focus on Emacs, and LaTeX.
To install, use GNU Stow.
- Clone the repo into your home directory, into a .dotfiles directory.
- Navigate into said directory.
- Run the command
stow emacs
andstow
whatever else you need. - Done. Everything is symlinked up.
This configuration is minimal, attempting to only utilize ELPA packages available via package managers in many GNU/Linux distributions.
- AUCTeX (auctex)
- YASnippet (elpa-yasnippet, elpa-yasnippet-snippets)
- Org (elpa-org)
To use this git configuration, you also need the file .gitconfig.local
with the file contents
[user]
name = First Last
email = [email protected]
and any other private git configurations in your home directory.
For example, one useful private configuration might be if you wish to have a separate git configuration for work or school active only within a specific /home/username/directory
directory, distinct from your main credentials.
To do so, you can include the following in your gitconfig.local
:
[includeIf "gitdir/i:/home/username/directory/"]
path = /home/username/.gitconfig.example
with the contents of /home/username/.gitconfig.example
something along the lines of
[user]
name = First Last
email = [email protected]
[core]
sshCommand = ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_example
