Casey Rodarmor <casey@rodarmor.com> pointed out that Dotbot parses JSON
files as YAML. The YAML format doesn't allow tab characters, which are
normally allowed in JSON. This patch adds a note about this to the
README.
This commit adds an option to the extended configuration syntax for
linking files and directories. The relink option is a safe alternative
to forcibly linking that only removes broken symbolic links, so it
cannot result in data loss.
This commit introduces an extended configuration syntax for shell
commands. This syntax allows for specifying whether the stdin, stdout,
and stderr streams are enabled.
Add support for YAML format configuration files. In addition, this
commit adds instructions about YAML config files to the README, and it
also changes the README to encourage use of YAML instead of JSON.
This commit introduces an additional option for extended configuration
syntax for linking. It adds the "create" parameter which results in
automatically creating a parent directory if necessary before linking a
file.
This commit introduces an extended configuration syntax for linking
files and directories. Currently, this syntax allows for specifying
items to be forcibly linked, overwriting existing files or directories
if necessary.
The extended configuration syntax was proposed by Travers McInerney
<travers@mcinerney.me>.
