-### Reinstallation
+### Reinstalling Dotfiles
 
 To reinstall your dotfiles, clone your dotfiles repo and make sure your shallow-backup config path can be found at either `~/.config/shallow-backup.conf` or `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/.shallow_backup.conf`. Set the `backup-path` key in the config to the path of your cloned dotfiles. Then run `$ shallow-backup -reinstall_dots`.
 
+
+When reinstalling your dotfiles, the top level `.git/`, `.gitignore`, `img/` and `README.md` files / directories are ignored.
