Additionally, I use GitHub to store my credentials, which allows me to just copy the `.gitconfig` and `.git-credentials` to the user home directory on the VM.
To debug iOS apps, it's easiest to use XCode Wi-Fi debugging, so you don't need to connect the phone to the VM.
### Install as a Service
To install the VM as a service, you can run the `headless_service_install.sh` script. This script will install the VM as a service that starts on boot.
```bash
chmod +x ./headless_service_install.sh
./headless_service_install.sh
```
#### Uninstall Service
Run the commands below to uninstall the service:
```bash
sudo systemctl stop headless_opencore.service
sudo systemctl disable headless_opencore.service
sudo rm /etc/systemd/system/headless_opencore.service
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
```
