Google Drive: fix dotfile renaming
Raw
rename-files.md

Google Drive replaces the leading dot in dot-filenames with an underscore. To undo this after downloading the files as a zip run

  # replaces leading underscores with dots
  rename -n 's/^_/./g' *  # first check
  rename 's/^_/./g' *  # now execute

After downloading the files be sure to set the correct permissions

chmod 700 ~/.ssh
chmod 644 ~/.ssh/*.pub
# update private files to 600
