🥸 Custom files

Some times you want to add customizations that you don't want to version. Let's say that you use that at work and you want to keep some environment variables. This dotfiles look for specific custom files:

• ~/.zshenv_custom → For custom environment variables

📎 Forking

If you want to fork this repository remember to change:

• git/.gitconfig → The git config name and email
• mac/mac-setup.sh → Change the desired mac setup values
• apps/Brewfile → The mac installed apps
