# Bare Git Repository

- <https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/dotfiles>
- StreakyCobra

## Starting from scratch

```sh
git init --bare $HOME/.dotfiles
alias dotfiles='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles --work-tree=$HOME'
dotfiles config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no
```

## Install onto a new system

The `checkout` command is expected to fail with a message.
This is because your $HOME folder might already have some stock configuration
files which would be overwritten by Git.
The “BKDIR” part is a rough shortcut to move all the offending files
automatically to a backup folder:

```sh
git clone --bare <git-repo-url> $HOME/.dotfiles

alias dotfiles='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles --work-tree=$HOME'

dotfiles config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no

BKDIR=".dotfiles-backup/";
dotfiles checkout 2>&1 | egrep "\s+" | awk {'print $1'} |
  xargs -I{} sh -c "mkdir -p \$(dirname ${BKDIR}{}); mv -iv {} ${BKDIR}{}";

dotfiles checkout
```

## Install into `/etc/skel`

```sh
sudo mkdir -p /etc/skel/.dotfiles
sudo chown $(whoami) /etc/skel

git clone --bare $(dotfiles remote -v | head -1 | cut -f2 | cut -f1 -d' ') /etc/skel/.dotfiles

alias skelfiles='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=/etc/skel/.dotfiles --work-tree=/etc/skel'
skelfiles config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no
skelfiles checkout
```

## Useful Commands

- List all tracked files (from CWD):  
  `dotfiles ls-tree --name-only -rz main | xargs -0 $(whence lsd) -lU`

## Other Tools

```sh
lazygit --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles --work-tree=$HOME
```

# Install remotes as subtree

- <https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/git-subtree>
- Create an alias for remote repository
  - `dotfiles remote add <remote-name> <URL>`
- Import remote as a single commit (squashed)
  - `dotfiles subtree add --prefix <target-folder> <remote-name> <branch> --squash
  - Note 1: Must be called from $HOME
  - Note 2: Do not start <target-folder> with $HOME or ~

- neovim

## Generic Tips

### Github Patches

From [stackoverflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28484186/apply-github-commit-pull-request-as-a-patch).

```sh
wget https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/pull/2604.patch
git apply --stat --apply 2604.patch
```

## Debian Packages

```sh
apt install curl fd-find fzf grc ripgrep wget xdg-utils

dpkg-divert --divert /usr/bin/fd --rename /usr/bin/fdfind
dpkg-divert --divert /usr/share/man/man1/fd.1.gz --rename /usr/share/man/man1/fdfind.1.gz
dpkg-divert --divert /usr/share/zsh/vendor-completions/_rg --rename /usr/share/zsh/vendor-completions/rg.zsh
```

## Fonts

- [How to install and manage fonts on Linux](https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-install-and-manage-fonts-on-linux)
  - `mv folder ~/.fonts`
  - `fc-cache -fv ~/.fonts`

- [JetBrains Mono](https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/mono/)
  - Install the files **without “NL”** (i.e No Ligatures) in their names

- [Nerd Fonts](https://www.nerdfonts.com/)
  - [Download](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/tags)
    - JetBrainsMono.tar.xz
    - NerdFontsSymbolsOnly.tar.xz
  - [Cheat Sheet](https://www.nerdfonts.com/cheat-sheet)
  - <https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/master/bin/scripts/test-fonts.sh>

## kitty

- <https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/binary/>
- Install `JetBrains Mono` (without NF) & `NerdFontsSymbolsOnly` fonts.
  - Note: outside of kitty, it may be interesting to also install
    _JetBrains Mono_ **with** _NF_.

```sh
sudo apt install kitty-terminfo
(kitty --version && curl https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/changelog/ | html2text) | less

sh ~/.config/kitty/installer.sh
```

**Note**:
Kitty prepends its _bin_ folder to the path.
So it is more coherent/simpler to copy this behaviour into Zsh.

## lazygit

### Dependencies

- git-delta
- go language (when compiling)

### From Source

```sh
mkdir -p $HOME/dev_3rd/golang
cd $HOME/dev_3rd/golang

git clone https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit.git
cd lazygit

path+=(/usr/lib/go-1.21/bin)
go install
```

### Binary Releases

```sh
URI=https://api.github.com/repos/jesseduffield/lazygit
LOCATION=$(curl -s $URI/releases/latest \
  | grep "browser_download_url.*Linux_x86_64" \
  | awk '{ print $2 }' \
  | sed 's/,$//'       \
  | sed 's/"//g')
echo $LOCATION
wget $LOCATION
tar xf *.tar.gz(om[1])
```

### From Go Package

```sh
go install github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit@latest
```

Problem: Commit ID, build date and version aren't set.

```sh
$ lazygit --version
commit=, build date=, build source=unknown, version=unversioned, os=linux, arch=amd64, git version=2.43.0
```

## neovim

### Dependencies

- kitty / NerdFont
- libfuse2
- xsel

### Binary Nightly Release

```sh
mkdir -p $HOME/.local/bin
cd $HOME/.local/bin

curl -LO https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases/download/nightly/nvim.appimage
chmod u+x nvim.appimage
ln -sf nvim.appimage nvim
ln -sf nvim.appimage vi

cd $HOME
nvim --version
vi --version
```

### flatpak

```sh
flatpak install flathub io.neovim.nvim
```

## nnn — n³

### Dependencies

- kitty / NerdFont

- Archives Management:
  - bsdtar (`libarchive-tools`) supports _Zstd_
  - [fuse-archive](https://github.com/google/fuse-archive)
  - `atool`: last release is from 2012
    - <https://github.com/solsticedhiver/atool2>
    - <https://github.com/wummel/patool>

- Drag&Drop: <https://github.com/mwh/dragon>

- Trash:
  - `trash-cli` is a much better CLI-only solution!
    Compare the outputs of `trash-cli` and `gio trash --list`…
  - For `gio trash`, packages `libglib2.0` & `gvfs` are recommended.
