Unlike most Vim configurations you find on the Internet, this one is modular: not a single giant vimrc file! May it help you journey the lands of Vim.

Branches

• The master branch is a bare bones template for anyone to start with.

• The config branch adds my personal configuration of standard Vim.

Configuration

• config.vim activates your bundles and then loads your Vim configuration.

• config/**/*.vim is your Vim configuration, organized into files by topic.

• config/color/*.vim are configurations for the matching Vim color schemes.

• Vim 7.3 or newer

• Git 1.5 or newer

• vim-plug plugin manager

Backup your configuration:

mv ~/.vim ~/.vim.bak
mv ~/.vimrc ~/.vimrc.bak

Install this configuration:

git clone git://github.com/sunaku/.vim.git ~/.vim
ln -s ~/.vim/config.vim ~/.vimrc

Select a Git branch to use:

cd ~/.vim
git checkout master  # bare bones
git checkout config  # bare bones + my config

Install plugins straight form Vim:

vi +PlugUpdate +qa

Read the doc of vim-plug to learn how to manage plugins

Do all this periodically via crontab(1):

@daily vi +PlugUpgrade +PlugUpdate +qa
