Dotfiles

This repository contains my personal dotfiles, managed using GNU Stow.

This README is mostly because I forget things.

Features

• Terminal configurations (bash, ghostty)
• Git configuration
• Automated setup via install.sh

Installation

1. Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/erikthorselius/dotfiles.git ~/dev/dotfiles
cd ~/dev/dotfiles

2. Run the installer

./install.sh

This installs the required Homebrew packages and symlinks each subdirectory (bash, git, ghostty) into $HOME using GNU Stow.

Local secrets

Anything machine-specific or sensitive (API tokens, work-only env vars) goes in ~/.bash_secrets. The file is sourced at the end of .bashrc if present and is intentionally not tracked by this repo.

# ~/.bash_secrets
export SOME_TOKEN=...
