My dotfiles.

The commit history isn't the best, as I started this repository as a private repo just to sync my dotfiles.

Installation requirements: git and stow (GNU Stow)

git clone [email protected]:yrjarv/.dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
stow */

Directory name has a dot in front of it so that the * in stow * doesn't make stow try to stow the scripts.

I previously tried to create a script for after-install setup of my arch installations, but that failed.

Now, the directory only contains devilry_colors.js - a script made by Johann Tveranger to make the Devilry UI a little bit less confusing. I have modified it slightly, so that there is even less visual clutter. To use the script, install Tampermonkey in your browser.

I only keep this around for historical purposes, as I have now (hopefully) fully made the switch to Zsh. My .bashrc file is a mess, but it served me well.

Only contains a very simple .clang-format file, that clang uses when trying to automatically format my c programs.

• .config/btop and .config/htop contain config files for htop and btop, but they are mainly modified through the btop and htop TUIs. I track them with git because misclicks happen, and especially in btop I find it really hard to reverse any changes I made to the config when I don't have the config file version controlled.
• .config/hypr is where I have the config file for Hyprland. hyprland.conf is mostly the automatically generated file that every new install comes with, but I have made quite a few changes - especially to the keybinds.
• .config/kitty is a very simple config file for kitty, mostly to make it look even more minimalistic than it is by default.
• .config/waybar contains my very minimalistic Waybar config: It is black great bash configuration, I haven't really tried to make the switch yet. with white text, and absolutely no icons.

I am still trying to figure out if I should use neovim or emacs. In my nvim repository I am currently setting up neovim, but this is where I keep a somewhat functioning emacs config - so I have something to fall back on if I need to do something important while I configure neovim.

This can't be copied without changing the email and name (unless you want me to be a contributor to all your repositories...).

The main purpose of my .gitconfig file is to have a few aliases:

• last -X, where X is the number of commits to show, limits the amount of commits shown with git log: You might not want all the commits, only e.g. the hash of the previous one - in which case you can run git last -1.
• oneline is the same as git log --oneline, but slightly quicker to write.
• aco "MESSAGE" - my most used alias, it stages all modified files and commits them with the message you choose.
• word-diff: just like oneline it is a shortening of git diff --word-diff, for no other reason than that it is quicker to write.
• graph is one of the most interesting ones. It prints a nice graph of all commits on all branches, with better formatting than git log --graph.
• contributors isn't very much used, byt still quite useful. It lists all the contributors (if the email addresses are different, they are separated) alongside the number of commits they have made.

Additionally, all commits are should automatically get signed.

My .ssh/config file probably isn't very useful for anyone else, except maybe a few people at ifi: It is very repetetive, but allows me to run ssh guanin instead of ssh [email protected] -J [email protected] when I want to acces the department's guanin server.

I have set the default jumphost for ifi servers to be morgoth, for two reasons:

1. It is physically located in the department's basement, so it's about 100 meters away from me - compared to gothmog, which is in the city center.
2. When I use ssh at home, I need to use 2fa to get into the jumphost. But: UiO servers are configured to cache 2fa for a while. So if I concistently use the same jumphost server, I can utilize the 2fa caching fully.

I am trying to learn to use tmux, so this is where I am trying to create a tmux configuration.

This is my slightly messy shell config.

Additionally, there are some weird quirks with how I deal with Ifi servers: I have a few binaries in ~/.binaries/bin, because I can neither install nor upgrade with dnf on them (no sudo permissions), which is why I prepend ~/.binaries/bin to PATH.

There are also a few aliases that won't work for anyone else without modification, such as my uio-sftp function - which uses my username to ssh into the UiO SFTP servers.

I also have a few aliases and functions for simplifying my git workflow: I have one repository for each of the courses I take, and cd-ing between all of them just to make sure all my changes are pushed would take too long. So I have three aliases: push, pull, and status, all of which run their respective git commands in all the git repositories directly inside ~.

An additional "weird" thing I have done with my .zshrc: I have a command ((ll -L=2 &) > /dev/null) at the bottom. This is pretty much the same as tree - except with a lot fewer files being loaded. The reason for this is that the file system on the Ifi servers is very slow (all the files are on one physical server, which is connected to all the computing servers), so by accessing most of my files in the background when logging in, the files I am most likely to need are cached. I have zero proof that that's what happens, but the access times are dramatically reduced after adding that line - so I assume that it helps.
