Setting for saving to disk by default not iCloud has obliterated my local copies of Documents, Desktop, etc.

Hi,

After the most recent run of the install.sh file, I have noticed that directories that are synced to iCloud have had their local copies disappear and remain in iCloud only. Are you able to tell me what the setting was on this in the file for me to change and try to revert?

That's an odd one I haven't seen before. The only iCloud related setting is here:

https://github.com/atomantic/dotfiles/blob/master/install.sh#L569

# Save to disk (not to iCloud) by default
defaults write NSGlobalDomain NSDocumentSaveNewDocumentsToCloud -bool false

I wouldn't expect that setting to remove local files that are synced to iCloud...
Let me know if you are able to pinpoint it.

I am on the phone with Apple tech support, have been kicked around to lots of people, still trying to track this down.
