Edit: Woah, that guy needs to learn how to use Vundle and not embed third party files in his git repo, and let Vundle fetch it for him (look at mine for example)

I think git submodules + pathogen is a perfectly legit way to fetch/install/manage vim plugins.

Except he didnt use git submodules, he embedded them right in his git repo, which means he can never keep up to date.

Also, Vundle is pathogen inspired, its designed to be an easier way of doing the same thing, complete with automated updating for gitted stuff.

I know what vundle is.

Pretty sure we can't be looking at the same repo, because as far as I can tell, these are git submodules https://img.skitch.com/20120120-jx8g6cpj8amdagh6dtfbyjtjbp.j... (screenshot)

Re: Keeping up to date

    git submodule foreach git pull origin master --recurse-submodules

yep, they are proper git submodules, and this way you can specifically control which of them you want to update, and when.

FWIW, I used vundle for quite a while and went back to pathogen because vim's load time was much faster. Perhaps they have improved that.

    vim --startuptime time.txt

Well, if we're getting out the tape measure, this is my current inspiration:
