I loved your blog post on creating dotfiles. You explained it very well. I just saw this one part where you were hard coding the backup directory rather than using the variable. If someone were to rename the path, it would break on the hard coded line. I also thought it would be nice to be able to clone it anywhere and have it link to the location of the cloned dotfiles.

Make any adjustments you see fit and resubmit the pull request and I'll merge it if everything checks out. On a lighter note: It's nice to see people using my blog and dotfiles as a starting point for their own customizations/journey into using git for personal version control. Very rewarding, so thank you.

Agreed, $(pwd) is much nicer. Made the change as requested. Thanks again!
