My dotfiles & software manager

Profile-based, os-aware dotfiles which allows to mix private and public dotfiles repositories.

Installation

Warning: If you want to give these dotfiles a try, you should first fork this repository, review the code, and remove things you don’t want or need. Don’t blindly use my settings unless you know what that entails. Use at your own risk!

Linux/macOS (optional):

export http_proxy=http://proxy:port
export http_proxy=http://proxy:port
export http_proxy=localhost

Windows (optional)

[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("http_proxy", "http://proxy:port", "User")
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("https_proxy", "http://proxy:port", "User")
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("no_proxy", "localhost", "User")
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("ChocolateyInstall", "c:\\path\\to\\chocolatey", "User")
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("ChocolateyToolsLocation", "c:\\path\\to\\tools", "User")
