Curlable/wgettable installation script #137

I'm sure something like this would require overlooking a lot of the technical minutiae involved with managing user configuration files correctly, but I would thoroughly appreciate if I can, on a completely clean box, pipe some script and get rcm installed for my user with thoughtbot/dotfiles installed as my base, à la robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh style.

In a nutshell, I would want it to be possible to take a newly created user in a utterly new system, curl https://thoughtbot.github.io/~scripts/foo.sh | sh and receive instant gratification.

There is no way this will ever happen. Use your package manager instead.
