Subject: [PATCH] Print when a new file is linked or copied

When I use `rcup`, I get no output, even if a new file is linked:

```
$ rcup
$
```

When I use `rcup -v`, I get a list of every linked file in my dotfiles
(boring):

```
$ rcup -v
identical /Users/9999years/.cargo/config.toml
identical /Users/9999years/.config/1Password/ssh/agent.toml
identical /Users/9999years/.config/alacritty/alacritty.yml
...
```

This displays when new files are linked at all log levels:

```
$ rcup
ln ~/.dotfiles/my-new-dotfile ~/.my-new-dotfile
```

Is this OK, or does it conflict with the minimal output of `rcup`? Maybe
this should be hidden behind an `rcrc` option?
