Checkout this repo into ~/.dotfiles. Then install the dotfiles:
rake install
This rake task will not replace existing files, but it will replace existing symlinks.
The dotfiles will be symlinked, e.g. ~/.bash_profile symlinked to ~/.dotfiles/bash_profile.
If e.g. ~/.dotfiles/gitconfig contains <.replace github-token> then
- that bit will be replaced with the contents of
~/.github-token - the resulting file will be written to
~/.dotfiles/gitconfigdirectly, not symlinked
So if you want to make changes to that file, make them in ~/dotfiles/gitconfig and then run rake install again.
Changes to symlinked files without <.replace> bits do not require a rake install on every change as they're symlinked.
