Vundle is a short cut for Vimbundle and is a Vim plugin manager.

1. Setup Vundle:

    git clone http://github.com/gmarik/vundle.git ~/.vim/vundle.git
   

2. Configure bundles:

   Append to your ~/.vimrc:

    set rtp+=~/.vim/vundle.git/ 
    call vundle#rc()
    " Bundles:
    Bundle "L9"
    Bundle "FuzzyFinder"
    Bundle "rails.vim"
    Bundle "ack.vim"
    Bundle "git://git.wincent.com/command-t.git"
    " ...
   

3. Install configured bundles:

   Launch vim, run :BundleInstall (no Vim restart required since v0.5)

   Installing requires Git and triggers Git clone for each configured repo to ~/.vim/bundle/.

Vundle allows to:

• keep track and configure your scripts right in .vimrc
• install configured scripts (aka bundle)
• update configured scripts
• search all available vim scripts by name
• clean unused scripts up

Also as a bonus Vundle:

• manages runtime path of your installed scripts
• regenerates helptag atomatically

see :h vundle vimdoc for more details.

See gmarik's vimrc for working example.

• Vundle was developed and tested in Vim 7.3 on OSX and Linux
• Vundle wasn't tested on windows(so if you care i'm waiting for your pull request)
• Vundle tries to be as KISS as possible

Vundle is a work in progress so any ideas/patches appreciated

• √ activate newly added bundles on .vimrc reload or after :BundleInstall
• √ use preview window for search results
• √ vim documentation
• improve error handling
• allow specify revision/version?
• search by description aswell
• show descrption in search results
• instead sourcing .vimrc before installation come up with another solution
• tests
• make it rock!
