Thankfully this behavior is already built into Yeoman. Go ahead and install the latest version of this generator with npm install generator-ionicjs -g and go into your already existing project's directory.

Now simply run yo ionicjs again. Yeoman is smart enough to detect when its attempting to overwrite existing files, and I updated the initial cordova create command to not run for existing projects.

Here's an example output after re-scaffolding an existing project:

 conflict Gruntfile.js
[?] Overwrite Gruntfile.js? (Ynaxdh)

Thats great to hear. I'm not that well versed in Yeoman/Grunt so there are some hidden things that I'm not aware of.
