* Add new command to open NERDTree in the root of a VCS repository.
* Add another example to the help file.
* Refactor and make NERDTreeVCS work on Windows.
* Don't crash when NERDTreeVCS is given a nonexistent folder.
* Move VCS code to a plugin script.
* Add some documentation to the top of vcs.vim.
* Change the default node delimiter to the BELL character, \x07.
* Syntax match by ASCII code, vs. string concatenation.
* Document the NERDTreeNodeDelimiter setting.
* Clean up the documentation markup.
* Remove apostrophes, since the NERDTree settings aren't vim options.
* Use backticks to hot-link the referenced vim options.
* Add a modeline.
* Update the title and the About section of the documentation.
* Fix typo, and clarify branches of code in Github.
* Fix wrapping to 78, and remove colorcolumn setting from modeline.
* Change the ASCI Art title, and give credit for it.
* Change the word option to setting, and redo the word wrapping.
I want to reserve the word 'option' to mean only Vim options that are
changed with the `:set` command. Since we need to use `:let` to
establish the values for the NERDTree variables, I choose to call them
settings instead.
* Realign hot-links with concealed markup tags taken into account.
* Text alignment, typo fixes, and wordsmithing the About section.
* Introduce a flag to to sort by the node's modification time.
This flag is part of the NERDTreeSortOrder list. '[[timestamp]]' sorts
oldest to newest, while '[[-timestamp]]' sorts newest to oldest. Its
position in the array determines whether it is the primary sort (first
position) or secondary sort (any other position). The remaining elements
in the array describe the other sort level following all prior rules. If
needed, a tertiary sort is done alphabetically on the filename.
Examples:
['[[timestamp]]'] - oldest to newest
['\/$','*','[[-timestamp]]'] - dirs, then files, each newest first.
When using this flag, performance is slowed a little because the sortKey
is always recalculated with every sort. Why? Because if a file is saved
(either in vim or by an outside program), NERDTree needs to go back out
to the shell to get the new modification time.
* Update NERDTreeSortOrder documentation.
The new `[[timestamp]]' and '[[-timestamp]]' flags are added to support
sorting by modification time.
* Fix the inequality. Must be >= to force recalculation of _sortKey.
* Move `let path=` closer to where it's used.
It came to my attention that the option summary has been neglected for
the past few commits. I added the new option in this feature branch and
updated the descriptions of two nearby options.
This section could use some focused editing.
I altered the behavior of the ":OpenBookmark" command to match that of
the "NERDTree-o" mapping. This is acceptable for the following reasons:
1. It was broken, so no one was using it.
2. The name matches its behavior.
If a bookmark is to be opened in an explorer window, we should have a
command with a matching name for that behavior (":ExploreBookmark", for
example). This can be added later if there is enough demand for the
feature. Otherwise, this is a perfectly valid change.
Sorting the list of user bookmarks requires care to ensure that Vim's
builtin sort function is called correctly. Previously, this function was
called incorrectly. This is why the sorting of bookmarks never worked.
The offending functions have been removed here and replaced with
"s:Bookmark.CompareBookmarksByName". To understand the necessity for
this change, read ":h sort()" for the requirements of the function
reference argument (esp., note that it must return -1, 0, or 1).
In addition to fixing this problem, the new comparison function will
inspect the "g:NERDTreeBookmarksSort" setting to determine whether
case-sensitivity is preferred in the sort. The documentation has been
modified to accurately reflect this adjustment. The change is also made
in such a way as not to break any existing configurations.
Fixes#361 ("My bookmarks aren't sorted").
This commit adds a `NERDTreeCreatePrefix` setting that can be used to
prefix the `:edit` command that is used to create the NERDTree tree
window. Defaults to "silent", meaning that out of the box the window
will be created with "silent edit".
Users may wish to configure this to produce other effects. For example,
`NERDTreeCreatePrefix` can be set to "silent keepalt keepjumps" in order
to make NERDTree create its window with "silent keepalt keepjumps edit".
This can be used to create an effect analogous to the `g:netrw_altfile`
setting in netrw. An example of why you might want to do this is
described here:
https://github.com/tpope/vim-vinegar/issues/25
I'm not using vim-vinegar myself, but I am using something like it here:
https://github.com/wincent/wincent/blob/3efaa8fa50895/roles/dotfiles/files/.vim/plugin/mappings.vim#L60
And having `NERDTreeCreatePrefix` enables me to map "-" to show the
current file in context, and `^-6` to jump back to it.
Use +/~ for windows - which seems to not have the arrow chars in its
default font. TBH I don't really understand this.
Inprove the UI indent matching so that it should handle any combo of
open/close symbol lengths e.g. the fancy arrows are 3 bytes each,
whereas +/~ are 1 byte each.
Rename it to the more intention revealing NERDTreeRespectWildIgnore.
Use it directly in the `globpath()` call rather than surrounding if
statement. Its subjective, but I find this clearer.
Add an initializer for the option.
NERDTree can now optionally ignore the dot at the beginning of hidden
filenames for sorting to show them next to normal files if
`g:NERDTreeSortHiddenFirst` is set to 0. (By default it's set to 1 to
preserve the current behavior.) This is just like what GNU ls does when
`LC_COLLATE` environment variable is set to `en_US`.
