promote @balupton's `restore` about dorothy HOT 3 CLOSED

yeah i'm definitely going to look into this.

Plan will be to put it inside setup-dorothy after dorothy's clone but before the user repo clone. With a prompt of which directories you wish to restore; perhaps with a configuration array so the user can add/change which directories are prompted.

That said, the fact it needs rsync, or scp, to be useful defeats the purpose of having it so early in the setup cycle. As things like homebrew will need to be configured first.

Perhaps it really is best left a user shareable command, rather than a dorothy promotion. Or perhaps just a guide in the tips section of the new discussion forum.

For active syncing, this isn't ideal, and things like encrypted files inside git is a better solution.

This is best served by documentation, either around the cpr command, or around encrypting *.local directories.
