## [Help Maintain Vundle](https://github.com/gmarik/Vundle.vim/issues/383)
## 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
1. 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.
2. Set up [Vundle]:
`$ git clone https://github.com/gmarik/Vundle.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim`
3. Configure Plugins:
Put this at the top of your `.vimrc` to use Vundle. Remove plugins you don't need, they are for illustration purposes.
```vim
set nocompatible " be iMproved, required
filetype off " required
" set the runtime path to include Vundle and initialize
set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
call vundle#begin()
" alternatively, pass a path where Vundle should install plugins
"call vundle#begin('~/some/path/here')
" let Vundle manage Vundle, required
Plugin 'gmarik/Vundle.vim'
" The following are examples of different formats supported.
" Keep Plugin commands between vundle#begin/end.
" plugin on GitHub repo
Plugin 'tpope/vim-fugitive'
" plugin from http://vim-scripts.org/vim/scripts.html
Plugin 'L9'
" plugin not on GitHub
Plugin 'git://git.wincent.com/command-t.git'
" git repos on your local machine (i.e. when working on your own plugin)
Plugin 'file:///home/gmarik/path/to/plugin'
" The sparkup vim script is in a subdirectory of this repo called vim.
" Pass the path to set the runtimepath properly.
Plugin 'rstacruz/sparkup', {'rtp': 'vim/'}
" Avoid a name conflict with L9
Plugin 'user/L9', {'name': 'newL9'}
" All of your Plugins must be added before the following line
call vundle#end() " required
filetype plugin indent on " required
" To ignore plugin indent changes, instead use:
"filetype plugin on
"
" Brief help
" :PluginList - list configured plugins
" :PluginInstall(!) - install (update) plugins
" :PluginSearch(!) foo - search (or refresh cache first) for foo
" :PluginClean(!) - confirm (or auto-approve) removal of unused plugins
"
" see :h vundle for more details or wiki for FAQ
" Put your non-Plugin stuff after this line
```
4. Install Plugins:
Launch `vim` and run `:PluginInstall`
To install from command line: `vim +PluginInstall +qall`
## Docs

## Inspiration & Ideas
* [pathogen.vim](http://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen/)
* [Bundler](https://github.com/bundler/bundler)
* [Scott Bronson](http://github.com/bronson)
## Also
* Vundle was developed and tested with [Vim] 7.3 on OS X, Linux and Windows
* Vundle tries to be as [KISS](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle) 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!
