      When I’m contracting at a client sometimes they have boot strap scripts which push configuration out to your rc files that I want to gate. (Usually b/c I am using my own equipment or doing something a little strange.)

        uh…

        dude this is just a hobby for me, I didn’t get serious about it until like a few months ago. Before that I was recovering from a traumatic brain injury, and before that I couldn’t live on my own, and right before that it was December 2014. My first programming class was back in 2005, and I went to a coding bootcamp, but I haven’t actually made an effort to get hired until my fourth manic episode in November of this year.

          Sorry. I didn’t mean to offend and it’s not an attack at the project in anyway - sorry if it came across that way. I think tools to help you manage RC files are great. I just dislike tools that automatically inject themselves automatically (like rvm), my statement was in no regards about the tool you wrote.
