Setup

The setup.bash tasks:

• Copy gitconfig to ~/.gitconfig.
• Set local git user for this repo.

export DOTFILES=~/.dotfiles
bash ${DOTFILES}/git/setup.bash

Then, update the signingkey in the new gitconfig file:

# List available signing keys
# And copy the "bbb" part off the "sec aaa/bbb" section 
gpg --list-secret-keys --keyid-format=long
subl ~/.gitconfig

Command Line Git Reference
