cowboy / dotfiles Goto Github PK

I don't know exactly why, but hub gem doesn't require token in .gitconfig for me. Maybe it's good to remote that line and file to /link?

I couldn't figure out how to make the powerline configs work until I did this:

ln -s ~/.dotfiles/config/powerline ~/.config/powerline

Maybe you could add that symlink in the script.

Thanks for your awesome dotfiles!!!

That’s great news :) See http://kennethreitz.com/xcode-gcc-and-homebrew.html

(Filed this issue just in case you want to tweak your README and link to https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action, or whatever.)

FYI

I was playing around with your manp script and replace the cache_dir with something more generic after taking note of this page:

https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html

Your code:

My improvement:

cache_dir=${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/$(basename "$0")

Maybe I am missing the obvious. but where do I store secret keys for AWS, Heroku, etc and still have them loaded via dotfiles?

What would be my prefered way of doing that?

Cowboy please tell me, how i can remove programs installed with your .dotfiles?
Ex: ReaMote64, REAPER64, Moom...etc

I take the concept init scripts as being scripts that are run only when something needs to be setup. I've noticed that your script automatically wants to run any init script by default every time. Is there a way to make init scripts not default to be run after the first run? Example: I run dotfiles for the first time and all the init scripts default to run but then every subsequent run afterwards defaults to not run since everything doesn't need to be run every time. Thanks.

Using fancy terminal on Ubuntu.
Commands from history (with "up" arrow key) can not be edited. Specifically, backspace does not work

I don't see where the .aliases file gets sourced.. does bash know to read from this location?

Once gnarf/osx-compose-key#5 lands.

Hi Ben

Excellent work so with your dotfiles!

I am running Ubuntu 12.10 -- and it seems to hang at the installer for Node.JS --- looking at the active processes --- it is

curl -#Lf http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.8.16/node-v0.8.16-linux-x64.tar.gz

Not sure what other info I can give you --- let me know

thanks
John

I updated version 1.8.5 of Git via Homebrew and the git status function no longer reports the status in the prompt. Running brew uninstall git and using the version that came with Xcode works fine.

Any obvious reason this function would break in 1.8.5?

Add to the docs or README, maybe:

1. sudo visudo (enter password when asked)
   • Type /%adm<Enter>3fAiNOPASSWD:<Esc>:wq<Enter>
   • Before: %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL
   • After: %admin ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL
2. Install dotfiles per README
3. sudo visudo
   • Type /%adm<Enter>fNdf:<Esc>:wq<Enter>
   • (revert previous change)

(This assumes the default new system visudo configuration)

I even have a fancy prompt that shows the current directory, time and current git/svn repo status.

POIDH.

Hi there,

First of all we mean you no harm (Ahem :)

Secondly we wondered if you'd do us a massive favour concerning your use of the word 'Ubuntu' in the list in the 'Projects' column of this link http://bit.ly/ubuntubounties .

You see that your project is included in the main projects page of the only 'Official List' we have of Ubuntu Bounties, and we were really hopeful in asking you to make a certain change to your use of the word 'Ubuntu' so that we could have a complete list of the main 'Core' Ubuntu projects on that page.

To remedy this I would ask that you change the 'cowboy/dotfiles' github description from:
" My OS X / Ubuntu dotfiles."
to that of
"My OSX&Ubuntu dotfiles."

... which reads exactly the same, but allows for non-inclusion of the project into the search page results.

Obviously, we don't mean to tarnish your project, but we do need to produce the right results for the Ubuntu project as a whole, which I'm sure as an Ubuntu user you will support.

If you would prefer to create an issue and tell us under-here which temporary issue you would like to be funded then, we would gladly carry out that request. It's just unfortunate that your project happens to be in the 'way' of getting a full sheet of Ubuntu projects as you can see.

**Alternatively, I would ask that you suggest (to myself, below) an Ubuntu bounty that you'd like funding on your behalf, and I'd gladly, me personally, shall put $25 towards that project, and that specific bug that you say I should award.

Thank-you for your kind understanding in this matter.

If you run the install on an EC2 instance the authorized keys are broken. I have even backed up the authorized_keys file and moved it back still no luck. Any thoughts?

Hi,

thank you for your great scripts and configurations, and the proposed concept of managing them. I am currently using a small subset of the folders (init, copy and link) in order to setup Raspbian systems. It works great.

Just one question I have: Although the files within the subfolders COPY, LINK and INIT are handled as expected, the files in the SOURCE subfolder seem not to be. For example, I would like to see the prompt change according to the file source/50_prompt.sh . As the file bin/dotfiles does not execute / handle the SOURCE files as done for COPY, LINK and INIT, where (in which of the repository files) do I find the line of code which executes them?

Thank you very much.

See comments at f5033a0

in my ssh config file, i have hosts, such as:

Host foo
    HostName    127.0.0.1
    user        lucky

so I can ssh into a server simply by doing ssh foo

but this repo includes the config file. I do not want to. I can manually remove it using git rm --cached but i was hoping there was a better way you could think of.

I couldnt find a better location to post this. Thanks.

excludesfile = /Users/cowboy/.dotfiles/conf/.gitignore_global

should be

excludesfile = ~/.gitignore_global

And that file should be moved to link folder.

So, I had been setting export EDITOR=subl & export VISUAL=subl in .profile, .bashrc & .bash_profile in hopes that the EDITOR would change to sublime text, then I realized that you were sourcing them from 50_editor.sh.

As someone who really doesn't know a lick of shell scripting, I assume that you set Sublime text for OSX ( the "OSTYPE" = ^darwin condition check) & any of nano pico vi vim for others. I'd like to add sublime text to the mix, so do I just add subl to that list as well?

or do I just rewrite that line as export EDITOR='subl -w'

Apologies in advance if this is an inane question.

I installed the dotfiles on Ubuntu and got something different from what I was expecting. I'd like to uninstall and try another set of dotfiles. How can I do this?

It makes shell startup much faster

So I'm trying to setup the dot files. I've forked it out. But there are some errors that are showing

Any thoughts on whats happening?

The current setting of origin in bin/dotfiles line 288 is:

git clone --recursive git://github.com/${github_user:-cowboy}/dotfiles.git $DOTFILES

Yesterday I ran into an issue with this. I could not push to github.com with the generated .git/config.

The suggested form for cloning is:

git clone [email protected]:cowboy/dotfiles.git

This should setup .git/config right.

Just want to announce. Will send a pull request once I got some routine with github.com, and dived into this a little deeper.

P.S.: Yes, I tried with my own fork of the repo.

iTerm and built in terminal break on these commands with no errors:

cd /
cd /any/path/starting/with/slash
cd ~ && cd .. && cd .. # breaks when I get to the / path

and there were a few others. I have tried disabling things but cannot locate what is causing the issue so far.

If you still want to install Ruby 1.9.2, you'll need to add a step to install the official GCC compiler as a prerequisite. That installer can't use the XCode command line tools.

Installing Ruby versions: 1.9.2-p290

ERROR: This package must be compiled with GCC, but ruby-build couldn't
find a suitable gcc executable on your system. Please install GCC
and try again.

DETAILS: Apple no longer includes the official GCC compiler with Xcode
as of version 4.2. Instead, the gcc executable is a symlink to
llvm-gcc, a modified version of GCC which outputs LLVM bytecode.

For most programs the llvm-gcc compiler works fine. However,
versions of Ruby older than 1.9.3-p125 are incompatible with
llvm-gcc. To build older versions of Ruby you must have the official
GCC compiler installed on your system.

TO FIX THE PROBLEM: Install the official GCC compiler using these
packages: https://github.com/kennethreitz/osx-gcc-installer/downloads

You will need to install the official GCC compiler to build older
versions of Ruby even if you have installed Apple's Command Line Tools
for Xcode package. The Command Line Tools for Xcode package only
includes llvm-gcc.

BUILD FAILED

I don't know why you'd still want to be installing 1.9.2 with 2 being the stable branch (and when you're already installing 1.9.3) though, so you probably just want to (or have already) remove that version from your list of versions to install on a fresh machine.

Because if it gets moved, and you log out, and your server doesn't permit login via password...

(ouch)

(Never mind.)

Whenever I log into Ubuntu and open Chrome, I'm prompted to enter my password unlock a keyring 2-4 times. If open the Passwords and Keys app, I have multiple folders (somemimes 20+) named Login, most of which are empty or have less than three keys. It doesn't matter if I delete these folders because new ones always appear over time. It's like something in the dotfiles is automatically creating these folders, which I keep having to unlock. I've Googled this issue and the normal fixes don't work. How can i resolve this issue? Having to enter my password multiple times to use Chrome is cumbersome.

Opening a new Terminal Tab, or Window in OSX can be configured to start in CWD or HOME:

Using the "Shell Prompt" script will break that functionality and new Tabs and Windows will always open at HOME.
