  Description     : Keeps your dotfiles under git

Your home directory is your castle. Don't leave your dotfiles behind.

Homesick is sorta like rip, but for dotfiles. It uses git to clone a
repository containing dotfiles, and saves them in ~/.homesick. It then
allows you to symlink all the dotfiles into place with a single
command.

It is unclear what "rip" is in this context - seems it is something
unavailable in Debian, and therefore probably unsuitable for long
description (at least without being properly introduced).
Yep, unfortunatelly, my MTA put my previous mail to /dev/null and I was too lazy to write normal description one more time.
So for now it's just a copy-paste from offsite. =)


Homesick seems to be quite related to vcsh.  Would be nice if long
description compared with that.

...or better: Perhaps vcsh obsoletes homesick, or vice versa?
They are similair, but I don't like vcsh myself. I'll mention this in long description, yes.
