Checking for the existence of `jobwait()` function seems like a more
robust way to check if the current Neovim process meets the requirement
of the parallel installer. This condition precludes a very old version
of Neovim built even before the initial Job API was implemented.
The older documentation of vim-plug suggested that the second string
parameter to Plug command was for both branches and tags. But we've
realized that tags and branches are not interchangeable (#174), and it
is now recommended that the user explicitly specify whether it's a
branch or a tag. The now-undocumented second parameter is currently for
branches, but I'd like to change it for tags, as the use of tags are
much more common.
* Main differences from ruby are inside Command class, notably it
poll/sleeps on the subprocess to check output & timeout.
* Another difference, interrupt is not instaneous due to checking var.
* Otherwise, I mainly just mirrored code into objects.
* Note that due to GVim freeze, disabling use on Windows
This makes it easier and faster to kill spawned git processes.
Repetitive `pgrep` command for collecting PIDs is no longer required.
Unfortunately, :pgroup option is not supported on Ruby 1.8 so we can't
remove the old implementation of `killall`.
In order to install Gist as a plugin, you have to modify its `dir` to be
the `plugin` subdirectory of the normal path of the plugin if it were an
ordinary pathogen-compatible Vim plugin.
Plug 'https://gist.github.com/952560a43601cd9898f1.git',
\ { 'dir': g:plug_home.'/xxx/plugin', 'rtp': '..' }
PlugClean command was incompatible with the above trick, so it was
updated not to remove the parent directory of `dir` of each plugin.
There's a fairly widespread convention which recommends indicating the default
confirmation option in uppercase. Granted, the number of applicable instances
in vim-plug is currently only two, but perhaps this'll save users with such an
inclination having to hit Enter just to sate their curiosities.
