Description: Dotfile management made easy
        ============================
        
        ``dotfiles`` is a tool to make managing your dotfile symlinks in ``$HOME``
        easy,  allowing you to keep all your dotfiles in a single directory.
        
        Hosting is left to you. Yes, I've seen `<http://dotfiles.org>`_ but I don't
        like that model. If you're advanced enough to need dotfile management, then you
        probably already know how you want to host them.  Using whatever VCS you
        prefer, or even rsync, you can easily distribute your dotfiles repository
        across multiple hosts.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        To install dotfiles, simply: ::
        
            $ pip install dotfiles
        
        Or, if you absolutely must: ::
        
            $ easy_install dotfiles
        
        But, you really shouldn't do that.
        
        If you want to work with the latest version, you can install it from `the
        repository`_::
        
            $ git clone https://github.com/jbernard/dotfiles
            $ cd dotfiles
            $ ./bin/dotfiles --help
        
        Examples
        --------
        
        To install your dotfiles on a new machine, you might do this: ::
        
          $ git clone https://github.com/me/my-dotfiles Dotfiles
          $ dotfiles --sync
        
        To add '~/.vimrc' to your repository: ::
        
          $ dotfiles --add ~/.vimrc     (relative paths work also)
        
        To make it available to all your hosts: ::
        
          $ cd ~/Dotfiles
          $ git add vimrc
          $ git commit -m "Added vimrc, welcome aboard!"
          $ git push
        
        You get the idea.
        
        Configuration
        -------------
        
        You can choose to create a configuration file to store personal
        customizations. By default, ``dotfiles`` will look in ``~/.dotfilesrc``. An
        example configuration file might look like: ::
        
          [dotfiles]
          repository = ~/Dotfiles
          ignore = [
              '.git',
              '.gitignore']
          externals = {
              '.bzr.log':     '/dev/null',
              '.uml':         '/tmp'}
