zsh dotfiles

I use homeshick for dotfile management, with my castles stored on GitHub (https://github.com/stars/yut23/lists/homeshick-castles).

I'm using GRML's zshrc as a base, with some minor modifications (mostly stripping out stuff I don't use).

Load sequence

The original file layout was inspired by https://github.com/seebi/zshrc, but has evolved considerably since I first started.

Common config files are stored in ~/.zsh/, while host-specific ones are in ~/.zsh/$system_name/ and are sourced immediately after the corresponding common ones.

1. ~/.zshrc.pre
2. extracts autotmux overrides out of $TERM (used later in ~/.zshrc.local, set by https://github.com/yut23/ssh-ident)
3. adjusts GRML settings
4. loads Zinit
5. patches @zinit-scheduler to remove the chpwd hook
6. ~/.zshrc (GRML)
7. ~/.zshrc.local
8. sets $HOSTNAME, with an optional override in ~/.hostname
9. sources ~/.zsh/system_name.zsh to set $system_name, which determines what system I'm on for all host-specific configuration
10. sources ~/.zsh/paths.zsh and ~/.zsh/$system_name/paths.zsh
11. sources ~/.zsh/$system_name/modules.zsh if present and modules haven't been loaded before (modules.zsh can clear the loaded flag if needed)
12. sources ~/.tmux/autotmux.zsh, which will exec into a shared tmux session if connected through ssh (or explicitly requested)
13. loads homeshick
14. sources all the other config files
15. paths.zsh (loaded above)

• sets up $PATH

5. modules.zsh (loaded above)

• loads any environment modules needed

6. env.zsh
7. aliases.zsh
8. history.zsh
9. misc.zsh
10. plugins.zsh

• zinit
• prompt

11. keys.zsh
12. private.zsh

Conda/Mamba environments

• conda init and mamba init code goes in per-system paths.zsh
• activating the default environment is handled in plugins.zsh
