# A (not so(but still quite))simple vim config
|
|
|
|
This setup is a vim config using pathogen for the plugins and mannaged via git.
|
|
You can find the complete documentation for pathogen here : https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen
|
|
|
|
Next are a few usefull informations that I mainly wrote for me to remember but that should allow you
|
|
to use the same setup as me if you want to.
|
|
|
|
## Installation:
|
|
|
|
### Clone the respository
|
|
|
|
this will create a .vim folder in your main folder, containing all the vim config
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/Steins7/Vim ~/.vim
|
|
|
|
note : if want to adapt this setup to your taste (and I think you will) you should create your own
|
|
github repository and use my setup as a base for it.
|
|
|
|
(yep I'm too lazy to explain how to do that, but there should be plenty of people who will explain
|
|
it better that me)
|
|
|
|
### Create symlinks
|
|
|
|
for vim to be able to get to your your config, you'll need to create a *symbolic link*.
|
|
not sure if it is still needed, but in case, here is the command:
|
|
|
|
ln -s ~/.vim/vimrc ~/.vimrc
|
|
|
|
### Switch to the `~/.vim` directory, and fetch submodules:
|
|
|
|
this is needed in order to make sure everything is up to date
|
|
|
|
cd ~/.vim
|
|
git submodule init
|
|
git submodule update
|
|
|
|
## Install a new plugin:
|
|
|
|
its really simple, just cd to the bundle folder:
|
|
|
|
cd ~/.vim/bundle
|
|
|
|
there you can put the files of the plugin you want. The most clean way to do that is to add a submodule :
|
|
|
|
git submodule add the_url_of_github_repository
|
|
|
|
## Update your plugins
|
|
|
|
if you used submodules to install your plugins, that's reallly simple :
|
|
|
|
git pull --recurse-submodules
|
|
