Vim Plugin Manager - manage plugins with Git submodules and Vim 8 packages A lightweight plugin manager that leans on the tools you already have: Git and Vim 8's native package system (pack/plugins/start). No lockfile format, no runtime magic ! Every plugin is a plain Git submodule of your ~/.vim repository, so your whole setup is versioned, reproducible and reviewable with standard git. Declare plugins declaratively in your vimrc:     PluginBegin     Plugin 'tpope/vim-sensible'     Plugin 'junegunn/fzf', {'dir': 'fzf', 'exec': './install --all'}     Plugin 'neoclide/coc.nvim', {'branch': 'release'}     PluginEnd Features: - Add, remove, update, pin and roll back plugins as git submodules - Non-blocking git operations (Vim 8 jobs) with a concurrency queue - Sidebar UI with per-plugin status, spinners and update checks (TTL cache) - Post-install/update hooks (like fzf's ./install --all) - Backup / restore of your plugin set - Structured error reporting, central logging, :help docs Infrastructure-as-code for your editor: the pinned submodule SHAs make the installed state identical to the reviewed state (no drift, atomic rollback of plugins + config together). Built for DevOps fleets on plain Linux (Debian/Alma/Arch) who want Nix-grade reproducibility without Nix. Security-first: plugin names, dirs, branches and URLs are validated before they reach git or the filesystem. No network access at startup unless you ask for it. Requires: Vim 8.2+ (+job/+channel), Git 2.39+. Linux only.
