This is a management suite for dotfiles.

It assumes that you have a separate dotfiles directory, or are interested in creating one.

The programs provided are rcup, mkrc, rcdn, and lsrc.

Arch Linux:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rcm-git/

Debian-based (including Ubuntu):

wget https://thoughtbot.github.io/rcm/debs/rcm_1.2.1-2_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i rcm_1.2.1-2_all.deb

Gentoo-based (including Funtoo):

sudo emerge layman
sudo layman -f --overlays https://github.com/bronislav/overlays/raw/master/layman.xml --add bronislav
sudo emerge rcm

OS X:

brew tap thoughtbot/formulae
brew install rcm

Elsewhere:

This uses the standard GNU autotools, so it's the normal dance:

wget https://thoughtbot.github.io/rcm/dist/rcm-1.2.1.tar.gz && \
tar -xvf rcm-1.2.1.tar.gz && \
cd rcm-1.2.1 && \

./configure && \
make && \
make install

For more, see INSTALL.

• rcup is the main program. It is used to install and update dotfiles, with support for tags, host-specific files, and multiple source directories.
• rcdn is the opposite of rcup.
• mkrc is for introducing a dotfile into your dotfiles directory, with support for tags and multiple source directories.
• lsrc shows you all your dotfiles and where they would be symlinked to. It is used by rcup but is provided for your own use, too.
