Just stating "X is better" without giving any reason is not particularly helpful.
- darklajid 14y agoAgreed, but he replied to a single word comment (=> worse)
- ibotty 14y agobut this single word was a very valid reply to the parents question. without needing any explanation.
- slurgfest 14y agopathogen requires you to roll your own submodule thingy. This is certainly feasible if you know git well, but vundle is still easier
- johncoltrane 14y agoNot sure where you got that idea: I use pathogen without involving Git at all.
- ibotty 14y agoit does when you want to have your vim configuration in git. and vundle might be easier then (not, that using git submodules is so extremly hard).
- slurgfest 14y agoOK, then you have some kind of shell script to do the downloads, or you do them all manually each time. These are not better alternatives
- johncoltrane 14y agoMy ~/.vim is under version control (Git) but not every plugin is available through Git. Some plugin developers use Mercurial, others use Subversion or whatever and most only provide a .tar, a .zip, a vimball or even a single vim script. This Git myopia is seriously getting on my nerve.
