NAME
dotdrop - save your dotfiles once, deploy them everywhere
SYNOPSIS
dotdrop COMMAND [OPTIONS] [ARGS] ...
dotdrop --help
dotdrop --version
DESCRIPTION
Dotdrop makes the management of dotfiles between different hosts easy. It allows you to store your
dotfiles in Git and automagically deploy different versions of the same file on different setups.
It also allows manage different sets of dotfiles. For example, you can have a set of dotfiles for your
home laptop and a different set for your office desktop. Those sets may overlap, and different versions
of the same dotfiles can be deployed using different predefined profiles. Or you may have a main set of
dotfiles for your everyday host and a subset you only need to deploy to temporary hosts (cloud VM etc.)
that may be using a slightly different version of some of the dotfiles.
