@ashchan Yes, that has been in the back of my mind for a while. I have been focusing on re-writing most of the classes for better OO design, maintainability, and testing. However what you mentioned is an importnat aspect of the project and will be included in a near-future release (likely 0.7).
I'll be brainstorming over the next few days. I welcome your thoughts on a useful task name if you have any suggestions.
In fact, I have had the idea of being able to set them up by running something like dotify github ashchan/dotfiles
and it will clone and link everything automatically. Sound like a good solution to you?
Matt,
Yes, this would be super awesome! Looking forward to this feature.
Thank you for the great work on it!

I think that this task will do the trick when I release the next version.
Awesome! Thanks a lot!
Dotify v0.6.6 is out (a381e5b5)
Just tried it on a new machine and it worked like a charming!
Say I've installed and setup on one machine, and added .dotify to a git repository.
Now since I want to use the same dotfiles cross all my machines, I installed dotify on another machine. Then how can I fetch the git repository and setup dotify based on it?
It seems I need to copy all files out of the .dotify folder to my home folder, then do a link or setup manually?
How about adding a command to delete existing files under home folder, copy these files from .dotify, then link them automatically?
