## OSX
yadm can be installed using [Homebrew][homebrew].
```
brew install yadm
```
## RPM Based Installations
For RPM based systems like Fedora, Red Hat, CentOS, openSUSE, etc, there are
repositories hosted by openSUSE Build Service.
Follow this link for [repositories and installation instructions][OBS].
## Ubuntu/Debian
A version of yadm is available via standard package repositories. Use `apt-get` to install.
## Arch Linux
yadm is available in the official repository, simply use `pacman` to install it.
```
sudo pacman -S yadm
```
## Gentoo Linux
yadm is available in the main gentoo portage tree, simply use `emerge` to install it.
```
emerge -atv app-admin/yadm
```
## Void Linux
yadm is available in the official repository, simply use `xbps-install` to install it.
```
xbps-install yadm
```
## FreeBSD
yadm is available in the FreeBSD ports. Use `pkg` to install it from a prebuilt binary package:
```
pkg install yadm
```
## OpenWRT
Install the required dependencies, via
```
opkg update
opkg install bash git git-http gnupg coreutils-chmod coreutils-stat
```
and then install yadm via the download or clone instructions below.
## Download
You *can* simply download the yadm script and put it into your `$PATH`. Something like this:
```
curl -fLo /usr/local/bin/yadm https://github.com/TheLocehiliosan/yadm/raw/master/yadm && chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/yadm
```
Of course, you can change the file paths above to be appropriate for your `$PATH` and situation.
## Clone
You might wish to clone the yadm project and symlink `yadm` into your
`$PATH`.
```
git clone https://github.com/TheLocehiliosan/yadm.git ~/.yadm-project
ln -s ~/.yadm-project/yadm ~/bin/yadm
```
Now you can pull the latest updates to yadm using Git. Again, adjust the
file paths above to be appropriate for your `$PATH` and situation.
## Submodule
If you are comfortable with how Git submodules work, another option is to add
the yadm project as a submodule and symlink `yadm` into your `$PATH`.
```
cd ~
yadm submodule add https://github.com/TheLocehiliosan/yadm.git .yadm-project
yadm submodule update --init --recursive
ln -s ~/.yadm-project/yadm ~/bin/yadm
yadm add .yadm-project .gitmodules bin/yadm
yadm commit
```
When using submodules, you need to initialize them each time you do a fresh
`clone` of your dotfiles.
```
yadm submodule update --init --recursive
```
Updating to a newer version of yadm would use commands similar to this.
```
cd ~/.yadm-project
git pull
yadm add ~/.yadm-project
yadm commit
```
Again, adjust the file paths above to be appropriate for your `$PATH` and
situation.
You can find more information about Git submodules by reading the
[git-submodule][git-submodule] man page.
