# vim-lastplace v3.2.1

Intelligently reopen files at your last edit position. By default git,
svn, and mercurial commit messages are ignored because you
probably want to type a new message and not re-edit the previous
one.

## Advantages
Advantages over the snippets that can be found around the net include:
* Commit messages automatically start at the beginning of a file. This is important because many version control systems re-use the same file for commit message editing.
* Maximizes Available Context
    - Center the cursor vertically after restoring last edit position.
    - Keep as much of the file on screen as possible when last edit position is at the end of the file.
* Opens folds if the last edit position is inside a fold.
* Works properly with new file templates and scripts that jump to a specific line in them.

## Installation
### Vim 8 & Beyond:
You can install vim-lastplace as a vim plugin without any additional tools

```bash
mkdir -p ~/.vim/pack/plugins/start
rm -rf ~/.vim/pack/plugins/start/vim-lastplace
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/farmergreg/vim-lastplace.git ~/.vim/pack/plugins/start/vim-lastplace
```
### Pathogen:
You can also use [pathogen.vim](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen) or other plugin managers to install and use vim-lastplace.

```bash
cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone git://github.com/farmergreg/vim-lastplace.git
```
### Preventing Conflicts:
Depending on which Vim package you're using, Vim may be preconfigured with
last-edit-position logic that doesn't work quite as well as vim-lastplace.
If so, you may want to disable that in favor of vim-lastplace. For example,
for Vim as packaged with Git for Windows, you can edit
`C:\Program Files\Git\etc\vimrc` and comment out the "Remember positions in files"
`autocmd BufReadPost *` block.

## Configuration
You can configure what file types to ignore by setting
g:lastplace_ignore in your vimrc. This is a comma separated list.
By default it is set to:

```vim
    let g:lastplace_ignore = "gitcommit,gitrebase,svn,hgcommit"
````

You can configure buffer types to ignore by setting
g:lastplace_ignore_buftype in your vimrc. This is a comma separated list.
By default it is set to:

```vim
    let g:lastplace_ignore_buftype = "quickfix,nofile,help"
```

Closed folds are automatically opened when jumping to the last edit position. If you
do not like this behavior you can disable it by putting this in your vimrc:

```vim
    let g:lastplace_open_folds = 0
```

## Miscellaneous
This plugin is complete and stable. Please do not be afraid to try it even
if there is very little recent activity in this repository. If you do find
a bug, please submit a pull request that fixes whatever problem you're having.
