like 'yq', find, grep, etc

when link target already exists

e.g.

pre-install: |
  echo $(config_get .version)
config:
  version: 1.1

Like a .gitignore, the files/directories listed won't be linked during install.

And module.yml is ignored implicitly.

• Provide a install script.
• Update install section in the README.

Provide example skeletons for

• zsh
• bash
• vim

skip it in the sync cmd to help improving performance #17 .

In case the uninstall hooks are using the tools provided by its dependencies.

• Save the installation order to a list, append to the bottom of the list after each module install.
• Reverse scan the list during uninstallation, remove the itself from the list after each module uninstall.

The tricky part is to figure out where to insert the new module (including updated module, since it will be uninstalled first).

Make helpers available in the hook script, e.g.

• link
• relative_to
• current module path

Example the directory of a github repo,

github.com/timgreen/hcm-skeletons:vim

• Show the execution plan for the modules
• Spinner?

By scanning the directories containing module.yml.

Normally hcm.yml will be located at the root of the directory contains all the modules. This subcommand could help to figure out the modules been left over by mistake.

• Generate module list
• Respect shell settings
• Keep commented out modules

Another way to solve the problem is to allow group directory in the list, and let hcm to expand it during sync.

Also try to revert the changes.

Should related to the follow code in sync::ready_to_install

foo | while boo; do
  ...
  return 1
done

The return 1 in the subshell didn't quit the sync::ready_to_install function.
