arch-setup is a bash script meant to be used after completing an installation of Arch Linux. Running it will do the following:
- Configure makepkg to use all available cores
- Perform a full system upgrade
- Populate the mirror list using reflector
- Download, build, and install the AUR helper yay
- Install packages
- Install and modify system configuration files under /etc/
- Enable a number of systemd services
The package lists are sorted automatically by a pre-commit git hook which can be installed by running ln -sr hooks/* .git/hooks/.
Some additional useful scripts are included. tracked-pkgs expands package groups to print the list of packages which will be installed by arch-setup. It accepts the following flags to modify its behavior: -e/--explicit and -d/--deps. missing-pkgs prints a list of packages which should be installed but are not present. untracked-packages lists all explicitly installed packages which aren't managed by arch-setup. This lets you install packages to try them out and see if you like them before adding them to arch-setup. Later you can run untracked-packages and decided whether you want to keep each package and add it to the package list or remove it from your system.
