I am wondering just how often Vundle updates its list of scripts. I am
aware that it’s FAQ says “multiple times per day from the RSS feed”¹,
and the feed says it was last updated on 2012-11-09. tComment was
updated recently to version 2.07², so I did a :BundleInstall! to see
if it would update. It didn’t, so I looked on Vundle’s github mirror
of it³ only to see it’s on version 2.05, released well over a year
ago! I checked the plugin it installed in my .vim/, and indeed it’s
using 2.05.
So now I’m asking myself, “Is Vundle a dead project?”.
First, "hasn't been updated in a couple weeks" != "dead project".
Also, you seem to be conflating vim-scripts (an automated crawler of
www.vim.org/scripts, converting them to GitHub repos) with Vundle
(itself a Vim script to allow easy installation of Vim scripts via git).
AFAICT, vim-scripts doesn't seem to be updated all that frequently,
especially lately. IIRC, it was running on Google App Engine. Maybe
changes there have made it less viable on the "free" tier. Not sure
what more to add w/o some feedback from whoever's running it.
For your specific problem, though, you should be able to point your
Vundle config directly at the tComment git repo (found in the
www.vim.org description). Change:
Bundle 'tComment' " or whatever vim-scripts calls it
To:
Bundle 'tomtom/tcomment_vim'
(Will download it directly from GitHub.)
