This is a collection of scripts and config files that keep my Linux/macOS environment portable and in sync. It is mostly macOS-oriented, but should also work in Linux.
Originally forked from https://github.com/kkredit/linux-config. Go check out Kevin's set up, it's probably better than mine!
If you do decide to adopt some (or all) of the configuration in this repo as your own (please do),
make sure to update the git name config which is hardcoded as my name in system_files/gitconfig
line 2 before running ./file-install.sh. Unless your name is also actually Michael Spoehr, in
which case, disregard this warning. 😄
Running ./file-install.sh (see below) for the first time will prompt for the email you'd like to
use for git commits. This is saved in ~/.gitemail and reused on subsequent reruns of the script.
To install config files to appropriate locations on the filesystem, run
./file-install.sh [update]Note that many config files assume that various non-standard programs are installed on the system,
which can be installed via ./program-install.sh shell.
To install programs, run
./program-install.sh [update | some-prog]update runs an apt-get update/upgrade sequence and exits. some-prog causes the script to
install one or more less used or more complex program installs, such as ruby for an RVM
installation or wireshark to install the program and manage the groups. Running this script
requires root privileges.

You are 100% free to use anything from this repo. Please contribute your tips and tricks as well.
I've considered making this more modular so that it could be easily forked and shared, but I find that the real value is in making your config your own. Fork or copy this repo, then tear out my content and replace it with your own as you build it up over time.
