So I put all of my important dot files on Github. Whenever I need to reinstall stuff, I pull the files. To get this working, I need to do the "gh auth login" where it grants the ssh key. Or I can create a token for that specific machine on Github. This is a long list of letters/numbers that I then copy when doing "git clone".

During installations of Arch or even a minimal Debian, how do you do this? There are no browsers, so the command "gh auth login" would get stuck.

Is there a better way to do this, other than making the dotfiles repo public?

IMO:

  • want to show off? i3wm with gaps and rofi for menu launcher. Add it some transparency effects too.

  • want the MacOS style? Gnome. Default on a lot of distros.

  • want something stable? XFCE. Install and forget.
