 - `sigil apply --prune` — prune stale links without prompting
 - `sigil add <path>` — add a file/dir to the repo and symlink it

 `unlink/remove` accept these:

 - `package:relative/path`
 - repo path: `~/.dotfiles/<pkg>/files/...`
 - target path: e.g. `~/.config/<app>/...`

 ## Notes

 - If a repo file is missing, stale links should be pruned.
 - Prefer `sigil add` over manual moves into `files/`.

+# Editing dotfiles
+
+When editing dotfiles, it is preferred to add/edit the files in this project directly, instead of going to the source. this way we can then use sigil apply --prune, and everything will be synced, even when there are new files.
