How do you begin?

I just installed rcm 1.3.5 on my Mac using Homebrew.

When I try to register my first file, I get this:

$ mkrc ~/.vimrc
No dotfiles directories found in /Users/[redacted]/.dotfiles

The documentation is not clear on how to start using rcm, in my opinion. But maybe I missed something.

How do you begin using rcm?

Huh, and I get

~% mkrc ~/.foo
mv: rename /Users/mike/.foo to /Users/mike/.dotfiles/foo: No such file or directory

That must be a bug. I'll have to look into this shortly. Thanks for reporting it! Let me know if you discover more.

In the meantime, does it work if you mkdir ~/.dotfiles first?

The quickstart suggests the dotfiles dir will be created for you. This is a good default behavior, but we need

1. to tell the user we did it
2. suggest to register it as a Git or any SCM repo for reuse.
