Daniele Fucini 638f7e3dd9 Run discover-overlay-wait as a user unit and rework the vidthumb cache
vidthumb names thumbnails by a hash of path, size and mtime instead of a jq index that broke on quotes in filenames; systemd-tmpfiles removes ones unused for 30 days. discover-overlay-wait now runs from a systemd user unit started by xmonad and logs to the journal.

dotfiles

Configuration for my Arch Linux desktop: xmonad + xmobar on X11, kitty, fish, vim, mutt, mpd/ncmpcpp, lf and friends.

The repo is a bare git repository whose work tree is $HOME, so files are tracked in place with no symlinks or install script. This README lives in .github/ to keep it out of the home directory.

Contents

Area Files
Shells .bashrc, .bash_profile, .bash_aliases, .config/fish/, .config/starship.toml
X session .xinitrc, .xserverrc, .Xresources, .config/picom/, .config/dunst/
Window manager .config/xmonad/ (built with stack), .config/xmobar/ (bar configs and helper scripts)
Theming .gtkrc-2.0, .config/gtk-3.0/, .config/qt5ct/, .config/qt6ct/, kitty and btop themes
Terminal apps kitty, vim, lf, vifm, btop, calcurse, mutt, fastfetch/hyfetch
Audio / media mpd, ncmpcpp, mpDris2, mpv, beets, pipewire
Packaging .config/aurutils-makepkg.conf, .config/aurb/, .local/bin/aurb / aurs (aurutils wrappers)
Services .config/systemd/user/ (timers and overrides)
Scripts .local/bin/ (screen layout, phone mount, video helpers)

Note: config.fish sources ~/.bash_aliases, so the aliases apply in both shells.

Setup on a new machine

git clone --bare https://git.shouldnt.work/fuxino/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
alias config 'git --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles --work-tree=$HOME'
config config status.showUntrackedFiles no
config checkout

If checkout refuses because some files already exist, move them out of the way (or delete them) and run it again.

Not in the repo

Some files are deliberately left out and have to be recreated by hand:

  • .gitconfig
  • .config/mutt/accounts/main_gmail (account settings; muttrc sources it, so mutt won't start without it)
  • Credentials (.git-credentials, the aurutils git credentials)
  • Generated or state files (fish variables, histories, completions)

xmonad and xmobar

Only stack.yaml, its lock file, build and xmonad.hs are tracked. The sources are expected as git checkouts next to them:

cd ~/.config/xmonad
git clone https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad xmonad-git
git clone https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib xmonad-contrib-git
git clone https://codeberg.org/xmobar/xmobar xmobar-git
stack install
