How do you source the actual symlinked files? #162

I symlinked all the files in my castle, but none of them are being loaded into bash. Is there an extra function I need to add to source all of the files?

There is not. If your files are being properly symlinked, we are departing from the realm of "problems with homeshick" and entering "problems with bash", which this issue tracker is not really intended for. Nevertheless, here are some tips:

  • Doublecheck the filename and make sure it's called .bashrc (check the docs for special filenames)
  • Check if the file is readable, simply cat ~/.bashrc and check if you get the output you expect.
  • Maybe you have an early exit/return somewhere, you can debug your scripts by running set -x at the very beginning of your file to see what happens during execution

Those are the basics, I hope it helps! Closing as not relevant (if you find out that this is indeed a problem with homeshick, feel free to reopen it).
