Thanks for the pull request. It might be worth reading through discussion of backup in previous issues/PRs such as #12, #36, #90 so we can decide on a design. How exactly do you imagine this being used? Where will the backup directory be? (in the dotfiles directory?) Will it be specified per-file, or globally? What happens if there's a conflict? |
