    So, assuming bash is your shell, the ~/.bash_profile is executed for login shells for the user logging in.

    ~/.bashrc is the initialization script for when starting a bash session (for the current user).

    In my experience, the ~/.bashrc will also execute ~/.bash_profile if it exists. So you can use either.
