dotfiles

Shared shell configuration.

Scope

This repo currently tracks only shared zsh UI behavior.

Tracked file:

• .zshrc

This repo is intentionally small. Machine-specific shell setup stays in the local ~/.zshrc unless explicitly promoted into shared config later.

Local Setup

Local ~/.zshrc is expected to source this repo-managed file:

source "$HOME/Projekte/dotfiles/.zshrc"

That keeps the repo as the source of truth for shared prompt and shell UX, while local environment setup can remain machine-specific.

What Lives Here

Current shared config includes:

• prompt styling
• git branch display in the prompt
• exit-code based prompt arrow color
• zsh autosuggestions
• prefix-based history search on arrow keys

Verification

Syntax check:

zsh -n ~/.zshrc
zsh -n ~/Projekte/dotfiles/.zshrc

Quick interactive prompt check:

zsh -i -c 'true; precmd; print -P -- "$PROMPT"'

Notes

Keep this repo focused on shared interactive shell UX.

Examples of config that should usually stay local:

• secrets
• host-specific paths
• machine-specific SDK setup
• one-off helper functions
