Yeah, I didn't like the vim annotation, since we should not favour a single editor, what you suggest makes more sense if the below plugin works reliably and doesn't mess with all of your favourite .vimrc settings. > > Assuming this plugin: > > https://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=441 > > it appears we could have a $GIT/.vimrc file for this purpose. So, I'm not sure I 100% understand what it does from the description, would it only replace ("patch") the stuff that is relevant to the project, leaving all of the other settings coming from your ~/.vimrc config in effect?
