Ship vimtutor with Git for Windows by ctrueden · Pull Request #220 · msysgit/msysgit
added 2 commits
June 19, 2014 15:59This is the exact same vimtutor from the vim source repository: https://vim.googlecode.com/hg/src/vimtutor It works as is in MSYS, although there are a couple of warnings: /bin/vimtutor: line 28: mktemp: command not found /bin/vimtutor: line 28: tempfile: command not found Since these utilities are not present. However, the script has a contingency for that scenario, and manages to create a temporary copy of the tutor file anyway, so all is well. Signed-off-by: Curtis Rueden <ctrueden@wisc.edu>
This copies the vimtutor shell script, along with all the vim tutor files themselves in various languages, into the Git for Windows distribution. Since vi(m) is Git's default editor, and vi(m) has a steep learning curve, shipping the vimtutor will help mitigate some of that difficulty for new users. After all, they have enough on their plates learning Git, without being stuck in an editor they do not know how to control, too! Fixes issue #217. Signed-off-by: Curtis Rueden <ctrueden@wisc.edu>
