This is my collection of dotfiles for Linux systems, all stored in a bare git repo, and managed with the technique described at: https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/dotfiles.

To install on a freshly minted machine or container:

TODO: Packages that need to be installed...

1- Manually configure the monitor in the X11 config. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/org#Monitor_settings

Section "Monitor"
  Identifier "Virtual1"
  Modeline "3840x2160_60.00" 712.34 3840 4152 4576 5312 2160 2161 2164 2235 -HSync +V
  Option "PreferredMode" "3840x2160_60.00"
  DisplaySize 597 336 # In millimeters
EndSection

Modeline can be obtained by using an online calculator (Google). Exact display dimensions can be obtained either from the manufacturer specs or by calculating it based on the diagonal size.

2- Get the real DPI from `xdpyinfo grep -B2 resolution

   screen #0:
    dimensions:    3840x2160 pixels (598x336 millimeters)
    resolution:    163x163 dots per inch

3- Set the dpi in the X server command line at the display manager, e.g. for sddm, we add the '-dpi 163' to 'ServerArguments' in /etc/sddm/sddm.conf

To edit dotfiles in vscode and have full access to git functionality, use the alias defined below:

alias dote=GIT_WORK_TREE=~ GIT_DIR=.dotfiles code ~

GIT_AUTHOR_NAME="<Your Name>"
GIT_COMMITTER_NAME="$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"
git config --global user.name "$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"
GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL="<Your Masked Address>"
GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL="$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL"
git config --global user.email "$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL"
