$ git remote add origin https://github.com/stefanvanburen/dotfiles
$ git fetch
$ git checkout -f main
$ git config status.showUntrackedFiles no

Manual Steps

• Install Homebrew:

  $ /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

• Install just, which drives the rest of the setup (just bootstrap installs it from the Brewfile too, but it has to exist before it can run):

  $ brew install just

• Run the bootstrap — installs the Brewfile dependencies, sets fish as the login shell (registering it in /etc/shells first), and applies macOS system preferences. Safe to re-run on an existing machine to check for drift:

  $ just bootstrap

  The preferences are the macos-defaults-* recipes in the justfile. The Zoom and Safari ones need Full Disk Access for the invoking terminal (System Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Full Disk Access), and Safari must be closed while its recipe runs.

• Create an ssh key (follow the instructions in ssh-config), and add it to GitHub and sourcehut.
