Initialization

TODO: how to handle a new linux system correctly.

Test with centos7-01:

1. put executable to HOME dir

2. add public ssh key to gitea user

3. initialize with ./chezmoi init sdroid@gitea.sdroid.uber.space:heavy/dotfiles.git

4. check what will happen with ./chezmoi diff

5. apply it with ./chezmoi apply

After that a bin directory will exist (if not yet present before), move the executable to this dir to have it PATH.

AWS Systeme (Draft)

TODO: create user file for initialization at provisioning

1. install go sudo yum install -y golang golang-bin

2. install git sudo yum install -y git-all

3. install chezmoi from git repo (see below)

4. check GOPATH and adjust if necessary

5. initialize with chezmoi init https://gitea.sdroid.uber.space/heavy/dotfiles.git (Use 'heavy' as user).

6. check what will happen with chezmoi diff

7. TODO: vi .config/chezmoi/chezmoi.toml (Template is not correct)

8. apply it with chezmoi apply

chezmoi installation

cd $(mktemp -d)
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/twpayne/chezmoi.git
cd chezmoi
go install

New User

Better try modifications with a new user to keep the defaul user accessible to the system. See below links to proceed.
