git_linux_resources

linux resources like bashrc for sharing among multiple hosts

To use this resource:

1. create a location to clone the repo: mkdir ~/git_resources && cd ~/git_resources

2. clone this repo: git clone https://github.com/mupi2k/git_linux_resources.git .

3. to use the resources here for ssh config, add the following to the TOP of your ~/.ssh/config:

Include ~/git_resources/ssh/config

4. to use included resources for .bashrc, add the contents of bashrc_template to your ~/.bashrc. Ideally, that should be put at the TOP of your bashrc. At a minimum, you will need:

# Paths.  Set at least $GIT_PATH to wherever you cloned the git linux resource repo to.
GIT_PATH="/home/$USER/git_resources"

if [ -f  $GIT_PATH/bash/bashrc ]; then
        . $GIT_PATH/bash/bashrc
fi

Of course if you used a location other than git_resources to clone to, you would need to update the locations in step 3 and 4.

By making this a separate directory under your home directory, although you lose the convienince of simply directly cloning your .bashrc, you also gain the ability to not worry about whatever else might be in your home directory, such as a ~/.ssh
