Salt's Bootstrap Script

A script to bootstrap a user with git and some auxiliary tools.

Usage

Download and run the latest bootstrap.sh:

cd
git clone https://git.9iron.club/salt/bootstrap
./bootstrap/bootstrap.sh $HOME

In the event that you want to simply test bootstrap.sh, simply pass a different argument to it:

./bootstrap/bootstrap.sh -d /path/to/directory

See bootstrap.sh -h for more usage information.

Older Versions

build-home.sh is an older version of the script kept here for legacy compatibility. Do not use it; use bootstrap.sh.

Notes

• By default, the user's home directory will be bootstrapped. Passing -d and a different path will cause a different path to be bootstrapped.

• By default, the repository will be cloned over SSH. Either generate some keys and add them to your remote server or change the repository URI to HTTP.
