 having to touch your init file again (meaning, *once El-Get is

+Placing `el-get-bundle` macro calls instead of `(el-get 'sync)` in your init
+file explicitly specify which package should be installed.  The macro
+accepts either a simple package name from defined recipes, a package name
+with a local recipe definition, a package with initialization code, or
+everything together.

+If a package with a local recipe definition has a recipe file, the
+definition overrides that in the recipe file.
+
+There are some syntactic sugars to specify a package name and a recipe source
+together.
+
+```lisp
+(el-get-bundle tarao/tab-group-el)
+;; equivalent to
+;; (el-get-bundle tab-group-el :type github :pkgname "tarao/tab-group-el")

+(el-get-bundle gist:4468816:pit

+(el-get-bundle elpa:undo-tree)
+;; equivalent to
