    I did something similar here https://github.com/redraw/dotfiles, along with some installation scripts

    although, nice idea on tracking the whole / instead of just ~/!

    the only thing I miss after aliasing dotfiles to git, is that you lose git's autocompletion features. I once tried to set it up in zsh with autocomp, but without success, should review that
