+[myrepos][myrepos] to track repositories in home such as `.emacs.d`,
+which `mr` can clone and update for you automatically. To do this,
+just add a `mr` configuration file to `availabile.d` with a `checkout`
+command to clone the repo, and set the [title] to the desired
+location, e.g. `$HOME/.emacs.d`. Try the `mr register` command in an
+existing repository, then view `~/.mrconfig` for an example.
