I just want to inform you guys that a new version 0.3 is released recently with a bunch of bug fixes as well as a new feature which allows dotploy to deploy .dotfiles from a local path outside the dot files repo or even from a VCS source(currently, only Git is supported) in the same manner as the makepkg does.
