- Remove some unnecessary code: IsHeaderFile is no longer required, as the logic
  to find flags to headers is now built into YCM
- Add function to make paths in flags absolute: It seems YCM is not correctly
  resolving paths in flags to consider `build` as the compiler working
  directory.
- Update documentation.

YouCompleteMe Integration

What is this?

This provides the code necessary to configure vim's YCM plugin to provide C semantic support (completion, go-to-definition, etc) for developers working on the Neovim project.

Installation

Step 1

Install YouCompleteMe.

Step 2

cp contrib/YouCompleteMe/ycm_extra_conf.py .ycm_extra_conf.py
echo .ycm_extra_conf.py >> .git/info/exclude
make

Tip: to improve source code navigation, add something like this to your nvim configuration:

au FileType c,cpp nnoremap <buffer> <c-]> :YcmCompleter GoTo<CR>

And use ctrl+] when the cursor is positioned in a symbol to quickly jump to a definition or declaration.
