Using the "add" option on files in another subdirectory of $HOME, it is not compatible with the "sync" action that does not create a symbolic link from where the "add" was used, but rather creates it in $HOME.

$ dotfiles add ~/.config/terminator/config
# Add in:
$ ~/Dotfiles/config
# Remove link:
$ rm -f ~/.config/terminator/config
# Sync
$ dotfiles --sync
# Syncs on:
$ ~/config
# It should sync on:
$ ~/.config/terminator/config

I will never mis use this bad package.

There's no need to be rude, I assure that behaviour was not malicious or intentional. The version you're using would be helpful. Since I've become a graduate student I haven't had much time for this project but if you can provide a bit more information I can certainly try to sort this out.

It's like "john" opened that account just to post that. 👎
