## Let's set up our dotfiles 

### Part 1: Set up your dotfile repository 

1. cd to your root directory (cd)
2. create a dotfiles directory (mkdir dotfiles)
2.5 run (git init) to initialize it as a git repository
3. run either a (touch .zsh_profile.zsh) file or a (touch .bash_profile) file 
	- zsh/bash depends on your shell. run (echo $SHELL ) in order to find out what shell you have
	- if you already have a {zsh,bash}_profile file in your root directory, copy over the contents

How

Start with your ~/.gitconfig file in your home folder. Add these lines:
