[BUG] User unfriendly behavior running bombadil install #106

Closed svenstaro closed 2 years ago

svenstaro commented 2 years ago

Describe the bug Running bombadil install without argument results in

bombadil install
No such file or directory (os error 2)

and critically it also deletes the pre-existing symlink at .config/bombadil.toml.

To Reproduce Just run bombadil install in your home dir.

Expected behavior I don't really know. What is it even supposed to do without argument? Anyway, it should NOT delete the pre-existing symlink at .config/bombadil.toml. It should also provide a more helpful error message.

Additional context --help doesn't document how install can work without being called with an explicit dotfiles directory.

Without arguments it will look for a bombadil.toml file in the current directory. This should indeed just print an error and abort if the file is not found.
