-# Cygwin home (~) configuration
+My Cygwin home (~) configuration files
-## Deploying on a fresh Cygwin installation
+To deploy on a fresh Cygwin installation, execute the lines below.
+**Be careful** though, some of your files might get **deleted**.
+Namely, your `.gitignore` file (if present) will be overwritten and basically
+all of your files this repository isn't aware of will be deleted.
+Execute the lines below one-by-one and, **most importantly**, review the list
+of files `git clean` will delete by adding the `--dry-run` parameter.
git init
+ curl --silent --show-error --location https://github.com/egor-tensin/cygwin_home/raw/master/.gitignore > .gitignore
+ git clean -d --force
+
git remote add origin git@github.com:egor-tensin/cygwin_home.git
- git clean -fd
git pull origin master
git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/master master
+
+The deployment should preferably take place right after you install Cygwin.
