prashantv's dotfiles

Install

Fresh install (no git required):

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/prashantv/dotfiles/main/setup.sh | bash

With git (clones via SSH for a writable clone):

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/prashantv/dotfiles/main/setup.sh | bash -s -- --git

From an existing clone:

./setup.sh

Options

  --branch NAME      Branch to use (default: main)
  --git              Clone via SSH instead of downloading tarball
  --profile NAME     Machine profile for zshrc_local (default: hostname)
  --dir PATH         Install directory (default: ~/dotfiles)
  --skip-binaries    Don't download binaries; expect them to be user-installed

To test a branch on a clean VM:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/prashantv/dotfiles/<branch>/setup.sh | bash -s -- --branch <branch>

How it works

• Files in home/ are symlinked to ~/, so edits in the repo immediately take effect.
• Machine-specific config lives in profiles/<name>/zshrc_local, selected via --profile.
• External dependencies (zprezto, fzf-tab, direnv, fasd, fzf-git, mise) are installed automatically.
• ~/.gitconfig_delta is generated with delta config if delta is available.

Dependencies

• curl (for any install)
• git (for --git mode and external dependency cloning)

Tips

• Install zsh and change shell: chsh -s $(which zsh)
• GitHub SSH Key Management
