# Dotfiles

if you mess up your dotfiles, don't worry, you can copy *up-to-date* files anytime from here.

## Setup Dotfiles

All the settings described in this guide are backed into following dot(.) files

> copy `zshrc`, `alias` etc., files to your home directory to make life easy.

to finish this task, run the following commands in terminal:

```shell
# go to your home directory
cd ~
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xmlking/macbooksetup/main/dotfiles/.zshrc -o ~/.zshrc
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xmlking/macbooksetup/main/dotfiles/.gitconfig -o ~/.gitconfig
# change `name` and `email` in `.gitconfig` after copying it, with:
git config --global user.name "Your Full Name"
git config --global user.email "Your Email"
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xmlking/macbooksetup/main/dotfiles/.config/starship.toml -o ~/.config/starship.toml
mkdir ~/my && cd ~/my
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xmlking/macbooksetup/main/dotfiles/my/.gitattributes -o ~/my/.gitattributes
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xmlking/macbooksetup/main/dotfiles/my/.gitignore -o ~/my/.gitignore
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xmlking/macbooksetup/main/dotfiles/my/aliases.zsh -o ~/my/aliases.zsh
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xmlking/macbooksetup/main/dotfiles/my/exports.zsh -o ~/my/exports.zsh
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xmlking/macbooksetup/main/dotfiles/my/extra.zsh -o ~/my/extra.zsh
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xmlking/macbooksetup/main/dotfiles/my/functions.zsh -o ~/my/functions.zsh
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xmlking/macbooksetup/main/dotfiles/my/paths.zsh -o ~/my/paths.zsh
```

> If you want to add **paths** or **exports** use respective files in `~/my` folder instead of editing `~/.zshrc`
