Staying up-to-date

So this assignment is more a reminder than an assignment. Please do NOT post homework for this one.

Vim is an open source project; as such it changes pretty quickly. We're looking at the latest-and-greatest 'head' of the source tree.

Since I started this course, the code has changed quite a bit. So, please run the following command in the 'src' directory to pull down the latest-and-greatest version of the source code.

hg pull -u

For me, that generated the following output:

pulling from https://vim.googlecode.com/hg/
searching for changes
adding changesets
adding manifests
adding file changes
added 19 changesets with 70 changes to 49 files
49 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved

NOTE: if you've begun to make any changes to the code, you'll need to read through 'man hg' to determine the proper commands to allow you to keep your modified versions while pulling down the latest code at the same time. For this case, please DO post homework here detailing how you're doing that.

NEXT STEPS: After doing the 'hg pull -u' it would make sense to re-run the following commands:

mkid (in the 'vim' directory or 'src' directory, or both)

sudo updatedb
