Bootstrap Ubuntu 18.04

Bootstrap ubuntu 18.04 under WSL for development, these scripts should run as your normal user and not as root!

It is also recommended that you set up your user for passwordless sudo using the visudo tool so that you do not need to enter your password to run sudo when the installation script is executing.

Initial installation

Clone Repository

git clone https://github.com/paulalex/wsl_bootstrap.git

Bootstrap WSL

source setup.sh

Update and resync

To pull in new changes and 're-source' .bashrc you need only run the following command (do not run setup.sh again):

source sync.sh

Important Note

Currently the .gitconfig contains my name and email address so ensure that you change this:

[user] name = Paul Ockleford

email = paul.ockleford@edfenergy.com
