![]() Rely on the upstream filetype.vim instead of duplicating its rules in
git's instructions for syntax highlighting support on pre-7.2 vim
versions.
The result is a shorter contrib/vim/README. More importantly, it lets
us punt on maintenance of the autocmd rules.
So now when we fix the upstream gitsendemail rule in light of commit

README |
Syntax highlighting for git commit messages, config files, etc. is included with the vim distribution as of vim 7.2, and should work automatically. If you have an older version of vim, you can get the latest syntax files from the vim project: http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/syntax/git.vim http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/syntax/gitcommit.vim http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/syntax/gitconfig.vim http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/syntax/gitrebase.vim http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/syntax/gitsendemail.vim These files are also available via FTP at the same location. To install: 1. Copy these files to vim's syntax directory $HOME/.vim/syntax 2. To auto-detect the editing of various git-related filetypes: $ curl http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/filetype.vim | sed -ne '/^" Git$/, /^$/ p' >>$HOME/.vim/filetype.vim
