Please install MacVim using this command:
brew install macvim --env-std --override-system-vim
Then install Powerline locally with
pip install --user
, or by running these commands in thepowerline
directory:./setup.py build ./setup.py install --user

This is a known libuv issue that happens if one is trying to watch too many files. It should be fixed in libuv-0.12. Until then it is suggested to either disable status_colors
(from :pypowerline.segments.common.vcs.branch
) or choose stat-based watcher (will have effectively the same effect as disabling status_colors
).
