Homebrew is the missing package manager for macOS (or Linux) 

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install))"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Install Git!

Using brew commands, we will now install and setup git. 

brew install git
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode 

git --version
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode 

git config --global push.default simple
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode 

git config --global user.email "<youremail>"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode 

git config --global user.name "<yourname>"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode 

git config --global alias.lg "log --color --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset -%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr) %C(bold blue)<%an>%Creset' --abbrev-commit"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

chsh -s $(which zsh)
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode 

brew install curl
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode 

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/master/tools/install.sh)"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Install powerlevel10k

I recommend installing via Homebrew

  • Install via Homebrew 
brew install romkatv/powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode 

echo "source $(brew --prefix)/opt/powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k.zsh-theme" >>~/.zshrc
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

  • Install Manually 
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git ~/powerlevel10k
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode 

echo 'source ~/powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k.zsh-theme' >>~/.zshrc
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

  • open ~/.zshrc file and look for the ZSH_THEME and apply changes 
ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

  • run 
 p10k configure
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

This command will guide you through various configurations that you would like to setup for your overall terminal look.
