Now it is support deploy dot files based on $HOSTNAME and $USER. If a
dotfile under a specfic $HOSTNAME and $USER location existed, it will
be used. Otherwise, the dot file with same name under $HOSTNAME
directory will be used. Otherwise, under $USER directory in common
directory. At last, if above all failed, the dot file in common
directory will be used.
This way, we can keep our dot files across several hosts of different
user maintained in a central repo using git or dropbox.Then we can
deploy or change it everywhere.
