I was tired of having a bunch of configurations across all my machines, especially when trying to keep all the plugins and extras up to date. So I got fed up and threw them on GitHub. It's not perfect (yet!), but it's a great starting point for any Linux config.
These configurations are based from an Arch Linux system running i3wm and compton + xterm/zsh, however most of the files should be usable without dependencies on the others.
Releases 2.0+ provide automated install support using my fork of dotbot. See Install for instructions.

Clone the repo and its submodules, then install links. The install will not override any configs by default.
git clone https://github.com/csivanich/dotfiles.git && \
cd dotfiles && \
git submodule update --init --recursive && \
./install.shIf errors occur due to existing files, move them and try again:
mv <config file> <config file>.bak
The install can be retried with ./install.sh
Included is an ./update.sh script which fetches and rebases upstream changes, updates submodules and installs the new configs.
cd /path/to/dotfiles
./update.shOr if you don't trust my scripts (why should you?), you can update manually:
git fetch -vp # Update refs
git rebase origin/master # Bring in new changes
git submodule update --init --recursive # Update submodules
./install.sh # Install new configs and clean old ones
