|
|
|
|
|
you're at the computer or connected via ssh.

## Install
|
2023-06-15 16:36:30 -04:00
|
|
|
The install script clones this repo, installs a few dependencies, then copies my configs to `$HOME/.config/` creating a backup
|
|
|
|
|
for any config files that already exist. NOTE: Only one backup per file is saved to prevent piling up backups. It's only meant
|
|
|
|
|
to catch small oversights and is very verbose.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shell tested on Arch, Ubuntu Server 22.04, Fedora 37, it should work just about anywhere.
