ovflowd's Personal Dotfiles

This repository includes ovflowd's personal dotfiles.

To install, simply open your bash or zsh terminal and run ./install.sh. Enjoy!

Before Starting

• ZSH: We use ZSH. Remember to install ZSH beforehand, or use chsh -s /bin/zsh.
• The install.sh script is compatible with Fedora, Debian, and macOS.
• This script will overwrite existing Bash Profile, ZSH, and Oh-My-ZSH environments.
• DO NOT run the script as sudo/sudoer. The script will ask for privileges when needed.
• The script can be fully executed in an unattended fashion depending on the environment (Docker/CodeSpace/CI pipelines).
• This script enables the git rebase strategy by default when doing pulls.
• This script enables commitizen and commitlint by default when doing commits via hook.

Custom Bash Aliases

• bu - updates brew formulas and casks (if on macOS)
• up - goes one directory up
• cl - clears the console output
• g - git command alias
• commit - alias for git cz

Note for VS/GitHub CodeSpace Users

• Please install the Hack Nerd Font on your system. This is required for PowerLevel10K. Otherwise, the terminal will have broken icons.
• Don't forget to change the font in Settings > Features > Terminal > Integrated: Font Family to 'Hack Nerd Font'.
