dotfiles
I posted about my version controlled dotfiles setup before but the scripts I used have evolved and I was going to rebuild the repo to host it on this site anyway. The main difference is I now use a python script instead of bash to pull dotfiles into the repository. The code also has a command line argument that could be used to re-configure a system with the given dotfiles but I wouldn't recommend using it because it's under tested. When setting up a new system I generally like to do things manually so I can see exactly what has changed.
