Usage

When you have a slow network, editing files on remote machine can be very annoying. With vim-sync, you can edit files on local machine and upload it right in vim.

Vim-sync uses rsync to sync between your local project files with remote ones. Suppose your remote repository is /opt/my-project, remote machine is john@example.com and your local repository is ~/repos/my-project.

1. create a file named .vim-sync in project root on local machine, with remote address as content

   % cd ~/repos/my-project
   % echo 'john@example.com:/opt/my-project' > .vim-sync
   

2. Edit some files and save them.

3. Use :VSUploadFile to upload current file to remote, use :VSUpload to upload all files to remote.

Todo

1. support asyncrun.
2. better error handling
3. add doc in vim
