Take Control of Your Workstation and Start Provisioning Your dotfiles!
summary
A runnable dotfiles repository that can provision a Mac from scratch and keep it updated using two commands: mac-config to edit settings and mac11 to commit and apply them. It began with Ansible but shifts to lightweight shell scripts and Homebrew package lists, and configures oh-my-zsh, asdf for per-project tool versions, autoenv/direnv, and the powerlevel10k prompt; Git workflow tips include GPG-signed commits and a global .gitignore.
