vim-repeat VS vim-sleuth

which requires vim-repeat to be installed but otherwise silently does nothing extra.

Do you have vim-repeat? I think sneak should work with that.

e.g. in vim-surround you could just do something like ysiw_ to make a word italics or ysiw*w. (assuming you also have vim-repeat).

vim.keymap.set("n", "dj",require"dap".step_over). However, I have not had any luck with registering this with vim-repeat. I have tried following the solution here, but nothing seems to happen. Also, the README in the vim-repeat repo only gives an example of use with a mapping, which is not my case. I don't think this is specific to nvim-dap in particular, so has anyone been able to add dot repeat functionality to any lua function?

Github: tpope/vim-repeat

Hi all, I just wanted to share a short gist I wrote for plugin authors on how they can incorporate dot-repeat functionality directly into their plugins, without external dependencies like vim-repeat. In general, I'm open to any suggestions about writing style or content; I just wanted to share some things that I wish I knew when I started writing nvim-surround. Cheers!

vim-repeat: More power to the dot.

In addition to setting tabstop and shiftwidth, you might also like this plugin: https://github.com/tpope/vim-sleuth

vim-sleuth auto detects tab size so...

Just add https://github.com/tpope/vim-sleuth and never worry about it again.

At the end of the day I don't really care which a project goes with, I've always just used vim-sleuth to automatically set my tab key to input whatever the current file's indentation is.

VsCode has an internal function from auto-detecting indentation, while my config uses vim-sleuth with indent-blankline.nvim.

If you work a lot on legacy codebases, https://github.com/tpope/vim-sleuth is probably more what you need than editorconfig, as it will work even when one is not present.

The primary advantage of using it is that it has built in heuristics for detecting line wrapping when opening a file (with some Treesitter magic for Markdown to make it more accurate), and also allows for manual swapping between wrapping types. You can think of it as the wrapping equivalent to vim-sleuth.

I just found about Tim Pope's sleuth: https://github.com/tpope/vim-sleuth It supports editorconfig but it also seems to have just better heuristics when an editorconfig file isn't present, so I just decided to replace `editorconfig-vim` with it.

Another solution is try sleuth.vim, that sets automatically your indentation based on the project, buffer and editorconfig
