dotfiles-bootstrap

Bootstrap script for setting up a fresh machine with my dotfiles (private) via chezmoi and Homebrew.

Usage

On a fresh macOS, Linux, or WSL machine:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sashton/dotfiles-bootstrap/main/install.sh -o /tmp/bootstrap.sh && bash /tmp/bootstrap.sh && rm /tmp/bootstrap.sh

Download-then-run (rather than curl | bash) gives the script an interactive TTY, which Homebrew's installer needs for sudo prompts and gh auth login needs for browser-based authentication.

This will:

1. Install Homebrew
2. Install GitHub CLI (gh)
3. Prompt for gh auth login (opens a browser to authenticate)
4. Hand off to chezmoi init --apply against the private dotfiles repo
