Personal System Setup_{(base branch)}

This repository tracks all of my user/system configurations, preferences, dotfiles, custom aliases, functions, scripts, programs, etc. of my personally used Linux distributions.

Directory Structure

Distributions

Each individual distribution — and their distinct versions/releases — has it's own branch.
These distribution branches are prefixed with the string distros/.

As the name implies, the base branch is the basis for all other distributions.
Changes are primarily made on this branch and then get merged into the active distros/* branches.

Installation

The files are installed using the script manage.
Passing the command "install" or "uninstall" will copy all files to the intended locations or remove them from there again, respectively.

Where each file will be installed to is declared in the Instructions.cfg files.

Custom Locale

I use a custom locale, which is a combination of the US American English language and Austrian regional formats. (along with some personal customizations to those formats)

This custom locale can be installed using the script install-custom-local (root access is required) and then set as the system's locale with the script set-custom-locale.

Licensing
