Role variables
Default variables are in defaults/main.yml
dotfiles_repo: "https://github.com/bmacauley/dotfiles.git"
The git repository containing the dotfiles. Dotfiles should be laid out within the root directory of the repository
dotfiles_repo_accept_hostkey: no

dotfiles_repo_local_destination: "~/.dotfiles"
The local path where the dotfiles_repo
will be cloned
dotfiles_home: "~"
