Tar a file with a different name

http://unix.stackexchange.com – To make my environment deployable, I occasionally tar up some handy files and scripts: tar -czvf env.tgz .vimrc .vim/ bin/lsl bin/s I would like to add .bashrc to the mix, but I have some sensitive information in there so I maintain .bashrc-deploy which I can then simply rename once the tarball is on the new server. However, I would really like to have the tarball have the correct name .bashrc from the get-go so that I would not have to rename. I considered writing a script which would temporarily rename the files and make the tarball, like so: #!/bin/bash mv .bashrc .bashrc-real mv .bashr (HowTos)

How to restore .bashrc 35 weeks 6 days ago

Terminal shows this bash: /home/atlas/.bashrc: line 73: syntax error near unexpected token [' bash: /home/atlas/.bashrc: line 73:if [ -x /usr/bin/dircolors ] ; then ' I've tried to fix it using "cp /ect/skel/.bashrc ~/"

And I get this "cp: cannot stat `/ect/skel/.bashrc': No such file or directory"

I'm unsure of why this is doing this and how to fix it.

The bash man page says: "When an interactive shell that is not a login shell is started, bash reads and executes commands from /etc/bash.bashrc and ~/.bashrc, "

I can see that bash.bashrc is executed because I put echo in it, but .bashrc is not.

This is a .bashrc question. I would like to set "export FOO=bar" for .bashrc in a particular directory like .rvmrc.

I tried below.

$ touch ~/foo/.bashrc $ echo 'export RAILS_ENV=development' >> ~/foo/.bashrc $ cd foo/ $ env|grep RAILS_ENV

But RAILS_ENV shall be set nothing in this case.

If I set onto .rvmrc instead of .bashrc, it pass!

On one of my Ubuntu 11.10 servers, when I use sudo -i to become the root user, root's .bashrc is not being executed.

1. do each user have a separate .bashrc file? 2. what is diff betw .bashrc and $HOME/.bashrc ? thanks..

After a recent upgrade to 12.04, auto tab completion was disable in /etc/bash.bashrc. I uncommented the following lines:

if [ -f /etc/bash_completion ] && ! shopt -oq posix; then . /etc/bash_completion fi

I tried to then run source /etc/bash.bashrc and . /etc/bash.bashrc but neither reloaded the config. They just gave me the error -sh: 1: source: not found.

Just provisioned a new Rackspace instance with Ubuntu 12.04 and pulled down rbenv from their github and installed it.

I'm getting the following errors when executing . ./~bashrc

$ .

I am trying to define some commands for my convenience but worried a bit if editing .bashrc can lead to security issues.

addecho somethingto the end of your ~/.bashrc and see whether it is really echoed or not, so that you'll be sure that ~/.bashrc is or is not executed
