Install script should say what files it writes #1454

When you install Rover via the curl installation, it prints out where it writes the binary (neat!) and updates some shell profile files to source its environment (neat!) and does not print out which shell profiles it writes (not neat!).

Some of us are weird nerds that have a weird web of shell profile files and symlinks and git repos etc and it would be nice to know where the lines were written so we can move them to the right place.

(The rustup installer is a great example which even tells you what files it will write before it writes it.)

this is a good idea.

for the implementor: this is the relevant code section where this would be implemented.
