I would like to manage plugins in the lowest-touch way possible, and ideally one that’s easy to migrate to other machines.
I like the idea of the internal plugin manager, but that generally means that I need to manually all the git repos on all machines. It also makes tracking plugins that I’m testing a bit annoying.
The alternative seems to be vundle or vim-plug, which do the git management, but don’t use the internal plugin system.
Are there other options? What’s the easiest these days?
The point isn’t so much the updates as ensuring all the plugins are installed the same way across 3+ systems (2 home computers, one work one, sometimes some servers)
rsync?
Yeah, that’s about where I’m at. It gets annoying though, with things like YouCompleteMe, which need to be compiled/installed to work properly, and the compilation is different on each architecture. I guess an rsync script with exclusions could work, but it just feels hacky, and like there should be a better way.
