Script to install stuff I want on a new OSX machine (last tested on macOS Catalina)

mac-setup.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash
# 
# Bootstrap script for setting up a new OSX machine
#
# Before you begin:
# - Install nvm: `curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.35.1/install.sh | bash && nvm install node`
# - Install rvm: 
#   - `curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable`
#   - `rvm install {{version}}`
#
#
# How to run:
#  1. Download the script (curl, etc)
#  2. Give executable rights: `chmod +x mac-setup.sh`
#  3. Run with `sh -x mac-setup.sh` (some app will need your password)
#  4. Once complete, review your output and take needed actions (ie. "keg-only" messages)
#
#
# Notes:
#
#  - If installing full Xcode, it's better to install that first from the app
#   store before running the bootstrap script. Otherwise, Homebrew can't access
#   the Xcode libraries as the agreement hasn't been accepted yet.
#  - This should be idempotent so it can be run multiple times.

# Future ideas:
#  - Migrate this to a README similar to https://github.com/ajmalsiddiqui/dotfiles
#  - Add .exports similar to mathiasbynewns above
