Newer versions of vim (such as 7.3.923) syntax highlight Rackup and JSON
files correctly. In the interest of keeping the dotfiles slim and our
machines up-to-date, I think the solution is to remove these from
dotfiles and install a newer version of vim in thoughtbot/laptop:
https://github.com/thoughtbot/laptop/pull/118
* Syntax highlight `Appraisals` as Ruby. Used especially for our open
source libraries.
* Syntax highlight rackup (`config.ru`) files as Ruby. Used in all our
Ruby web apps. Rails apps are rarely touched but some of the Sinatra
and Middleman apps are occasionally edited.
* Syntax highlight JSON files as JavaScript. Used in our Trail Map.
* Bash users experience errors when using the double-escaped spaces for the CtrlP-SilverSearcher integration.
Thanks to @adamyonk for raising this issue
* Use `ag` as the find method for listing files in CtrlP Vim plugin
* ag indexes and searches far faster than the native engine
* ag also respects .gitignore files on on a per-directory basis, avoiding duplication
It's not very useful to be dropped into the middle of your diff when
opening a new commit. This change prevents cursor position from being
restored for the `gitcommit` filetype.
I've had this in [my own dotfiles] for a while now, and really like
having the separation of what I consider to be code/configuration from
what to me feels more like a Gemfile, in that it lists out all of the
external dependencies in a single place.
[my own dotfiles](https://github.com/calebthompson/dotfiles/blob/master/vim/vimrc.bundles.symlink)
* Awesomer vundle integration:
* Refactor .vimrc and .vimrc.bundles to support standalone
BundleInstall.
* Install vim bundles as part of install.sh without sourcing the
normal vimrc, which prevents error messages from uninstalled
plugins referenced in the main vimrc.
vim-ruby is where Vim's support for Ruby comes from - file type
detection, syntax highlighting, etc. Vim bundles vim-ruby, but the
GitHub project is always ahead of what's released with Vim.
Includes features such as:
* `:Bundle`, which wraps `bundle`.
* An internalized version of `bundle open`: `:Bopen` (and `:Bsplit`,
`:Btabedit`, etc.).
* `'path'` and `'tags'` are automatically altered to include all gems
from your bundle. (Generate those tags with
[gem-ctags](https://github.com/tpope/gem-ctags)!)
* Highlight Bundler keywords in `Gemfile`.
* Support for `gf` in `Gemfile.lock`, plus syntax highlighting that
distinguishes between installed and missing gems.
Having this file be sourced last allows user to
overwrite the configs in `.vimrc` without having to modify it.
* fixed file's path to work with `filereadable`
https://github.com/ggreer/the_silver_searcher
* ag is faster than ack
* ag searches all files by default (but still ignores gitignored files). This
removes the need for ack's `--type-add=` options.
* The command is 33% shorter than ack!
* Set up Vundle in vimrc.
* Delete old copies of vim scripts.
* Bundles are automatically set up as referenced submodules.
* Ignore .netrwhist files given presence of submodules.
* Set up vundle in install script.
