- Added `exclude` parameter to _link_. Now, an array of glob patterns
can be given that will be used to remove items from a glob match.
This parameter will only have an effect when `glob` is `true`.
- Updated README to add description for `exclude` and add in examples.
Resolves #247

Testing
Dotbot testing code uses Vagrant to run all tests inside a virtual machine to have tests be completely isolated from the host machine.
Installing the Test environnement
Debian-based distributions
- Install the test requirements
sudo apt install vagrant virtualbox
- Install Dotbot dependencies
git submodule update --init --recursive
macOS

Running the Tests
Before running the tests, you must SSH into the VM. Start it with vagrant up
and SSH in with vagrant ssh. All following commands must be run inside the
VM.
First, you must install a version of Python to test against, using pyenv install -s {version}. You can choose any version you like, e.g. 3.8.1. It
isn't particularly important to test against all supported versions of Python
in the VM, because they will be tested by CI. Once you've installed a specific
version of Python, activate it with pyenv global {version}.
The VM mounts the Dotbot directory in /dotbot as read-only (you can make
edits on your host machine). You can run the test suite by cd /dotbot/test
and then running ./test. Selected tests can be run by passing paths to the
tests as arguments, e.g. ./test tests/create.bash tests/defaults.bash.
To debug tests, you can prepend the line DEBUG=true as the first line to any
individual test (a .bash file inside test/tests). This will enable printing
stdout/stderr.
When finished with testing, it is good to shut down the virtual machine by
running vagrant halt.
