## Hackers and developers
## Multiple installations
The default method of installing homeshick is for each user to make a private
clone of the upstream repository from Github. For users that want to modify the
implementation, and maybe make contributions to homeshick, that remains the way
to go about it.

A git clone and this package can co-exist. Assuming that the setup scripts have
been sourced, as instructed above, the environment variable `HOMESHICK_DIR` can
be used to control which instance of homeshick is run, the default being the
instance installed by this package.

%description
In Unix, configuration files are king. Tailoring tools to suit your needs
through configuration can be empowering. An immense number of hours is spent
on getting these adjustments just right, but once you leave the confines of
your own computer, these local optimizations are left behind.
Homeshick is a tool for users to manage configuration files, also known as
dotfiles. A set of dotfiles is stored in a git repository. Standard git
push/pull commands are used to synchronize a dotfile repository between user
accounts and/or machines. Multiple git repositories can be managed
independently. For example, this allows installing large external frameworks
(such as oh-my-zsh, or a multitude of emacs or vim plugins) alongside personal
dotfiles without clutter.
By the power of git, homeshick enables you to bring the symphony of settings
you have poured your heart into with you to remote computers. With it you can
begin to focus even more energy on bettering your work environment since the
benefits are reaped on whichever machine you are using.
However bare bones these machines are, provided that at least bash 3 and git
1.5 are available you can use homeshick. homeshick can handle multiple dotfile
repositories. This means that you can install larger frameworks like oh-my-zsh
or a multitude of emacs or vim plugins alongside your own customizations
without clutter.
