###General Rather than cloning the repo into your home folder, I would recommend creating a .bash folder in your home folder and then creating symlinks for the bash config files (See instructions below).
###OSX Installation: mkdir ~/.bash git clone git://github.com/wburningham/bash_config.git ~/.bash ln -s ~/.bash/.bash_profile ~/.bash_profile
###Linux Installation: mkdir ~/.bash git clone git://github.com/wburningham/bash_config.git ~/.bash ln -s ~/.bash/.bashrc ~/.bashrc ln -s ~/.bash/root/.bashrc /root/.bashrc
