## Current dotfiles included

### .bash_profile

Bash configuration file loaded on every terminal session. If you make a change here, make sure you run `source ~/.bash_profile` to reload it. Things that go here are bash aliases, $PATH definition, bash prompt setup, etc.

### .gitconfig

User-level configuration file for all things git. Anything you would normally add with `git config --global --add key.subkey value` can be added in the .gitconfig file as:

```
[key]
subkey = value
```

We currently set up user config (**which you should change to be your own user/email**), color ui turned on, and git aliases.
