+# Dotfilesb
+The purpose of this directory is to monitor dotfiles via a bare git repository. It is inspired by this https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/dotfiles blogpost, which in turn was inspired by this https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11070797 HN thread.
+THe repo has two branches, the main branch I use on Ubuntu distros with an GNOME DE. The arch branch is surprisingly for my minimal arch setup, currently running X11 + openbox + polybar.
 
 ## Setting up this project initially:
 1. git init --bare $HOME/.cfg
 2. alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.cfg/ --work-tree=$HOME' or echo "alias config='usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.cfg/ --work-tree=$HOME'" >> $HOME/.bashrc
 3. config config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no
 
+## Installing on a new system
+While in $HOME
+1. Add the following to .bashrc alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.cfg/ --work-tree=$HOME'
+2. source .bashrc
+3. echo ".cfg">> .gitignore. This is to preent potential recursive problems
+4. git clone --bare https://github.com/leoalho/dotfiles.git $HOME/.cfg
+5. Checkout the content to $HOME: config checkout
