This repo hosts the dotfiles I accrue over the years. There are a couple of purposes this repository serves:

1. Ensures that dotfiles and config files are backed up regularly in case I need to get up to speed config-wise on a new machine.
2. Ensures that helpful functions or aliases I come across are persisted across devices, and that I always have access to them moving forward.
3. To take the config backup process out of my hands completely, and place it into the far more reliable hands of the crond 😉

Thanks to Jesse Spevack for figuring out how to get cached GitHub credentials working inside of crontab.

Step 1: define the PATH for crontab, which is doable with this script found via stack overflow.

Step 2: Ensure access to the Github repo is done using SSH, which is succinctly summarized by this gist

Step 3: Profit :)
