Project Repositories

The configuration clones multiple project repositories into ~/projects and adds custom tooling to your PATH.

Prerequisites

Before running this configuration:

Set up SSH keys for GitHub - Follow the GitHub SSH setup recipe
Update repository URLs - Replace git@github.com:org/repo1.git with your actual repository URLs
Verify repository access - Ensure your SSH key has access to all repositories

Customization

This configuration can be customized for your organization:

Add/remove tools: Modify the formulae and casks arrays in the Homebrew resource
Change versions: Update version numbers for Node.js, Python, or Java
Update repositories: Replace the git-clone resources with your team's repositories
Adjust paths: Modify the parentDirectory for repositories or the custom PATH location

Usage Notes

Some repositories depend on git-lfs being installed first (note the dependsOn field)
The PATH modification depends on the first repository being cloned (referenced as git-clone.0)
After installation, open a new terminal or source your shell configuration to use the new tools
