Managing local plugins

[termac]

Vundle does not seem to handle local repositories. If e.g. I add "Bundle 'file:///builds/vim-smart-statusline'" to vimrc and do a :BundleInstall it reports sucessfull installation but I only get an empty "file://builds" directorye inside ~/.vim/bundle.

Hey termac! Vundle's error reporting is on TODO list, thats why u get false success, sorry!
Other than that, try Bundle '/builds/vim-smart-statusline' (without file://)
Or use:
Bundle '/builds/vim-smart-statusline/.git'
in case '~/builds/vim-smart-statusline' is a working copy.

Thanks for reporting this!

I tried without "file://" already with the same result: empty dir structure.
Adding /.git to the path results in Vundle not trying to install the plugin at all as it seems.
Atleast it is reporting "Installed Bundles: " whereas without /.git it reports the pathname as plugin that has been installed.

I see...
I've never came across any issues with local repos as i'm using local repo myself
ok, i'll try to reproduce this issue and fix it.
Thank you!

It works fine if the dir ends in ".git". Propably a common way to name local repos. I send a pull request anyway to change the regex for url prasing to match on "file://" and/or leading "~" or "/" of the path component.

[gmarik]

so git is complaining about uris like:
file://~/path
Vundle should not support them as well.
Other than that after minor changes fixes pushed to master

[termac]

You are right. I did not test all variants, sorry. Thanks for your work on vundle!

I tried to build a plugin on windows, but neither Bundle E:\somewhere\something nor Bundle E:/somewhere/something nor Bundle file://E:\somewhere\something nor Bundle file://E:/somewhere/something works.
