# dotfiles (home directory .files)

These are some of David Blume's dot files to be installed
in new user home directories.

### Getting the project

You can get a copy of this project by clicking on the
[ZIP](http://git.dlma.com/dotfiles.git/zipball/master)
or [TAR](http://git.dlma.com/dotfiles.git/tarball/master) buttons
near the top right of the GitList web page.

You can clone from the origin with:

git clone ssh://USERNAME@dlma.com/~/git/dotfiles.git

### Installation

Run the following:

~$ mkdir dotfiles
    ~$ cd dotfiles
    dotfiles$ curl -L http://git.dlma.com/dotfiles.git/tarball/master > dotfiles.tar
    dotfiles$ tar -xvf dotfiles.tar
    dotfiles$ rm dotfiles.tar

Then, then you run `setup.sh`, it'll backup your old files to `backup_of_orig_dotfiles_<date>`
and replace them with the ones here.

dotfiles$ ./setup.sh
