Big thanks to Zach Holman for directory structure and Rakefile inspiration.

install

git clone git://github.com/schisamo/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
git submodule init
git submodule update
rake install

The install rake task will symlink the appropriate files in .dotfiles to your home directory. Everything is configured and tweaked within ~/.dotfiles, though.

topical

Everything's built around topic areas. If you're adding a new area to your forked dotfiles — say, "Java" — you can simply add a java directory and put files in there. Anything with an extension of .zsh will get automatically included into your shell. Anything with an extension of .symlink will get symlinked without extension into $HOME when you run rake install.
