+    alias dotfiles='git --git-dir=$HOME/dotfiles --work-tree=$HOME'

+
+On other machine, to reconstruct:
+
+    git clone --bare git@bip.im:dotfiles dotfiles
+    alias dotfiles as above
+    dotfiles checkout
+
+remove files in the way if necessary

+Manage one branch per computer if necessary.
+
+If a change is for all, do it on master, then:
+
+	dotfiles merge master
