These are my Vim and Neovim settings that I like to keep synced between my computers for convenience. This bootstrap setup will support both Vim and Neovim and uses different plugins, where needed, to bridge gaps in functionality.
Vim and Neovim less than 0.5 support is really in maintanence mode now and not heavily maintained. I may actually trim down the configuration to be more minimal and act as an alternative to my more IDE like Neovim environment.
Nearly every version of Vim or Neovim found on major distros is supported right now. To simplify things, I am considering adopting the following rule: Supporting only the lowest version of each found in the latest Ubuntu LTS and Debian Stable releases. I'll also make tags for commits where I drop support for a version.
The `vim` directory here is what gets symblinked to `~/.vim`, and the `neovim` directory gets symblinked to `~/.config/nvim`. Inside, the `init.vim` file will also get symblinked to `~/.vimrc`. The `neovim/init.vim` file will dyanmically load the older non-Lua configs if Lua is not supported. The other included directories are mostly standard vim directories that provide some additional configuration files. The exceptions would be `backup`, which becomes the new default location for storing backup files while editing. The `tmp` directory is for storing session information. The `rc` directory is where all the `vimrc` work gets done.
The `init.vim` file essentially sets vim up to import the rc files from the `rc` directory. The actual configuration exists almost entirely in the `rc` directory. Each file should be fairly self explanatory.
One problem with syncing rc file between different machines, is that you may have different usages. That is solved by this framework by making use of `local.rc` files. For every `*.rc.vim`, you may provide a `*.local.rc.vim` file which will be loaded after the shared one. Here you can override or add anything to the synced configuration without it causing problems on any other machine.
I am not the original creators of some of the files included in the vim directory and only vendor them out of convienince. If I am missing any licensing information I'd be happy to attach it.
