About
Vundle is short for Vim bundle and is a Vim plugin manager.
Vundle allows you to...
- keep track of and configure your plugins right in the
.vimrc
- install configured plugins (a.k.a. scripts/bundle)
- update configured plugins
- search by name all available Vim scripts
- clean unused plugins up
- run the above actions in a single keypress with interactive mode
Vundle automatically...
- manages the runtime path of your installed scripts
- regenerates help tags after installing and updating
Vundle is undergoing an interface change, please stay up to date to get latest changes.
Quick Start

Introduction:
Installation requires Git and triggers
git clone
for each configured repository to~/.vim/bundle/
by default. Curl is required for search.If you are using Windows, go directly to Windows setup. If you run into any issues, please consult the FAQ. See Tips for some advanced configurations.
Using non-POSIX shells, such as the popular Fish shell, requires additional setup. Please check the FAQ.

Inspiration & Ideas
Also
- Vundle was developed and tested with Vim 7.3 on OS X, Linux and Windows
- Vundle tries to be as KISS as possible
TODO
Vundle is a work in progress, so any ideas and patches are appreciated.
- activate newly added bundles on
.vimrc
reload or after:PluginInstall
- use preview window for search results
- Vim documentation
- put Vundle in
bundles/
too (will fix Vundle help) - tests
- improve error handling
- allow specifying revision/version?
- handle dependencies
- show description in search results
- search by description as well
- make it rock!
