    Thanks @shivaram. I'm not sure I follow 100%. With that argument they 
should have ended up eg /.vimrc (unless root is a subdirectory of dotfiles). 
The contents if '--deploy-root-dir' end up in /, not /root/ (ie as documented 
in the help). This is necessary because you may want to copy files elsewhere on 
the file system. Eg /opt. It's just unfortunate that the existence of /root/ 
means "root" is not unambiguous. Therefore I made sure to use / in the help.
