1. WHY VUNDLE ~
                                                   *vundle-why-vundle*
Vundle allows you 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 up from unused scripts

Also Vundle:

- manages runtime path of your installed scripts
- regenerates helptags automatically

Vundle takes advantage of [vim-scripts.org](http://vim-scripts.org)
in order to install/search [all available vim scripts]

=============================================================================
2. QUICK START ~
                                                    *vundle-quickstart*
1) Setup Vundle: >

    git clone https://github.com/gmarik/vundle.git ~/.vim/bundle/vundle

2) Configure bundles:

   Sample `.vimrc`: >

     set nocompatible               " be iMproved
     filetype off                   " required!

     set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/vundle/
     call vundle#rc()

     " let Vundle manage Vundle
     Bundle 'gmarik/vundle'

     " My Bundles here:
     "
     " original repos on github
     Bundle 'tpope/vim-fugitive'
     Bundle 'Lokaltog/vim-easymotion'
     Bundle 'rstacruz/sparkup', {'rtp': 'vim/'}
     " vim-scripts repos
     Bundle 'L9'
     Bundle 'FuzzyFinder'
     Bundle 'rails.vim'
     " non github repos
     Bundle 'git://git.wincent.com/command-t.git'
     " git repos on your local machine (ie. when working on your own plugin)
     Bundle 'file:///Users/gmarik/path/to/plugin'
     " ...

     filetype plugin indent on	    " required!
     " or
     " filetype plugin on	    " to not use the indentation settings set
				    " by plugins

3) Install configured bundles:

   Launch `vim`, run >

    :BundleInstall

Installing requires [Git] and triggers
[Git clone](http://gitref.org/creating/#clone) for each configured repo to
`~/.vim/bundle/`.

=============================================================================
3. SCRIPTS ~
                                                    *vundle-scripts*
3.1 CONFIGURE SCRIPTS ~
                                      *vundle-scripts-configure* *Bundle*
Before installing scripts they need to be configured. It's done using `Bundle`
command in `.vimrc`: >

    Bundle 'git_repo_uri'       " 'git_repo_uri' should be a valid uri to git
				" repository
or >

    Bundle 'script_name'        " 'script-name' should be an official script
				" name (see |vundle-scripts-search|)

Vundle loves Github, that's why short URIs can be used with commands: >

    Bundle 'tpope/vim-fugitive'

equals full uri >

    Bundle 'http://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive.git'

Note that Vundle defaults to http:// protocol for the short URIs.

There can also be a second argument after URI.  It has to be a dictionary with
a key called 'rtp'.  The value for that key is a directory inside the
repository (relative path from the root of the repository) where the vim
plugin resides.  For example: >

     Bundle 'any_valid_uri', {'rtp': 'some/subdir/'}

This can be used with git repositories that put the vim plugin inside a
subdirectory.

3.2 INSTALL SCRIPTS ~
                                      *vundle-scripts-install* *BundleInstall*
run >
    :BundleInstall

installs configured scripts. Newly installed scripts will be automatically
enabled. Except special cases requiring compilation or pre-configuration.

BundleInstall allows to install scripts by name:>

    :BundleInstall unite.vim

installs and activates unite.vim. You can use Tab to auto-complete known
script names. Note that the installation just described isn't permanent. To
finish, you must put `Bundle 'unite.vim` at the appropriate line in your
`.vimrc` to tell Vundle to load the plugin at startup.

3.3 UPDATE SCRIPTS ~
                                      *vundle-scripts-update* *BundleInstall!*
run >
    :BundleInstall!             " NOTE: bang(!)

installs or updates configured scripts.
press u after updates complete to see the changelog of all updated bundles.

3.4 SEARCHING ~
                                       *vundle-scripts-search* *BundleSearch*
run >
    :BundleSearch foo

lists bundles matching 'foo' in new a new split window, ie:
>
    Bundle 'VimFootnotes'
    Bundle 'foo.vim'
>
and >

    :BundleSearch! foo

refreshes script list before performing actual search.

If command is run without argument: >

    :BundleSearch!

it will display all known scripts

Searching requires [`curl`](http://curl.haxx.se/)

3.5 LISTING BUNDLES ~
                                     *vundle-scripts-list* *BundleList*

To quickly pull list of installed bundles use >

    :BundleList


3.6 CLEANING UP ~
                                     *vundle-scripts-cleanup* *BundleClean*
run >

    :BundleClean

confirms removal of unused script-dirs from `.vim/bundle/`.

                                                            *BundleClean!*
>
    :BundleClean!

removes unused dirs with no questions.


=============================================================================
4. INTERACTIVE MODE ~
							*vundle-interactive*
Vundle provides a simple interactive mode to help you explore new scripts
easily.  Interactive mode is available as result of any commands that displays
a list of bundles. For instance, running: >

    :BundleSearch! unite

triggers search for scripts matching 'unite' and yields a split window with
content: >

    "Keymap: i - Install bundle; c - Cleanup; r - Refine list; R - Reload list
    "Search results for: unite
    Bundle 'unite.vim'
    Bundle 'unite-yarm'
    Bundle 'unite-gem'
    Bundle 'unite-locate'
    Bundle 'unite-font'
    Bundle 'unite-colorscheme'

As the first line (starting with `"Keymap:`) shows, certain actions may be
applied to selected bundles. Move the cursor over the line `Bundle
'unite.vim'` and press i key (install, see |vundle-keymappings| for more
details). After unite.vim is installed - `:Unite file` command should be
available to prove 'unite.vim' availability.

Note that the interactive installation doesn't update your .vimrc
configuration.

=============================================================================
5. KEY MAPPINGS ~
							*vundle-keymappings*
KEY | DESCRIPTION
----|-------------------------- >
 i  |  run :BundleInstall with name taken from line cursor is positioned on
 I  |  same as i, but runs :BundleInstall! to update bundle
 D  |  delete selected bundle( be careful not to remove local modifications)
 c  |  run :BundleClean
 s  |  run :BundleSearch
 R  |  fetch fresh script list from server
.

=============================================================================
6. OPTIONS ~
							    *vundle-options*
  let g:vundle_default_git_proto = 'git'

makes Vundle use `git` instead default `https` when building absolute repo URIs
