You can do it within the graphical installer or by typing the same command as on debian.


####Install `sudo, git, vim, tmux, curl and fish`.  
**On Debian:**
apt-get -y install sudo git vim tmux curl
curl -L https://goo.gl/eHAKB4 | bash

On Fedora:
dnf install git vim tmux fish


Things you have to do from any other user account (e.g. the admins account)

####To ssh into your machine with the <SERVER_SHORTNAME>:
Insert following three lines in ~/.ssh/config on the host:
Host <SERVER_SHORTNAME>
    USER <SERVER_USERNAME>
    HostName <SERVER_HOSTNAME>


####For ssh autologin run (on host):
cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh <SERVER_SHORTNAME> "mkdir -p ~/.ssh && cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys"


####Login with your \ (`ssh `)
git config --global user.name "<FIRST_NAME> <LAST_NAME>"
git config --global user.email "<EMAIL_ADDRESS>"
git clone https://github.com/andsens/homeshick.git $HOME/.homesick/repos/homeshick
