This would save the effort of having to reload if any changes were made to aliases or bash_it functions.

I think something like http://madebynathan.com/2012/10/29/auto-reloading-your-bashrc/ would work, but there's a chicken-and-the-egg problem. The first time you run Sprout, you still won't have this and will need to manually reload. Thoughts?

This feels fragile/excessive, 43 lines that could go wrong.

Maybe just document some options:

"At this point you should open a new shell/terminal to see any updates to your bash environment"
"You can run exec bash -l to see any updates to your bash environment"
- maybe this could be added to ./sprout

I'm a little worried about auto-reloading a user into a broken shell environment. The recovery path isn't obvious.
