dotfiles

Personal dotfiles for macOS/Linux. Managed with symlinks, no framework.

What's in here

File	What it does
.gitconfig	Git aliases (lg, co, ci, df), vimdiff, SSH URL rewrite. Personal email by default - work config loaded from ~/.gitconfig.work if present.
.gitignore_global	Global ignores for OS files, editors, Python, Node, Go, Terraform
.tmux.conf	tmux 3.6+. Vi copy mode, cross-platform clipboard (macOS/Linux), mouse, intuitive splits
.vimrc	vim-plug (auto-bootstraps). fzf, fugitive, undotree, surround, commentary, lightline. Space leader.
.zshrc.personal	Personal zsh layer - sourced from your system .zshrc, doesn't replace it
starship.toml	Starship prompt config

Install

git clone git@github.com:mr-lee/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles
cd ~/dotfiles
./install.sh

This will:

• Symlink dotfiles into $HOME (backs up existing files as .bak)
• Install Starship via brew if missing
• Clone zsh-autosuggestions and zsh-syntax-highlighting
• Append source ~/.zshrc.personal to your .zshrc

Preview first with ./install.sh --dry-run.

Post-install

vim +PlugInstall +qa   # bootstrap vim plugins

Then open a new shell.

Work config

Work-specific git config (email, GPG signing) lives in ~/.gitconfig.work, which is not in this repo. It gets loaded automatically via [include].

Machine-specific zsh overrides go in ~/.zshrc.local (also not in this repo, sourced last).

Updating

Edit files in this repo, commit, push. Re-run ./install.sh if you added new files (it's idempotent).
