dotfiles

My dotfiles for macOS on Apple Silicon.

Setup

Install Homebrew, then:

git clone https://github.com/riki-nishida/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles
~/dotfiles/bootstrap.sh

bootstrap.sh runs brew bundle, install.sh and mise install, then makes fish the login shell. It is safe to rerun.

Rust comes from its own installer (PATH already covers it):

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh -s -- --no-modify-path

install.sh only handles the links:

• Symlinks everything under home/ into $HOME, entry by entry inside .config and .claude
• Moves anything already in the way to *.backup.<timestamp>
• Removes links to entries deleted from home/
• Creates an empty ~/.gitconfig so git config --global doesn't write into the repo
• Is safe to rerun

Layout

home/
├── .zshenv, .zprofile, .zshrc
├── .claude/      settings.json, CLAUDE.md
└── .config/      fish, gh, ghostty, git, mise, nvim

• New tool: add its directory under home/.config/ and rerun install.sh
• Directly under home/, only .config and .claude can be directories; install.sh refuses others such as .local so it doesn't move the existing one aside
• Files the tools write at runtime (credentials, state) go in .gitignore
• Some tracked files are rewritten by their tools and show up in git status: .claude/settings.json, nvim/lazy-lock.json, nvim/lazyvim.json, gh/config.yml

Assumptions

• Homebrew at /opt/homebrew
• fish as the login shell; zsh is set up only so tools such as Claude Code get the same PATH and mise tools
• Languages via mise, except Rust via rustup
