I've used the directions for bootstrap script. Right now I seem to require running the init command with I also have set Any ideas? I've really found chezmoi to help setup all my environments quickly, but having to manually run for each codespace is a bit frustrating.

I've done a ton of reading on this in the past and totally missed the private not supported issue would impact using a custom dotfiles repo. I figured since I'm using "chezmoi" repo not dotfiles and have the executable that it would be able to do this. Maybe the workaround is to use a name/token in the url in my own private synced settings file for dotfiles so it can reach it. Not ideal, but might work. (Note: I really wish GitHub had the concept of a token specific to a single repo). Otherwise, I'd need to make my chezmoi repo public, which I could do, just had hesitated on. thanks for the clarity! |
