MANUALLY INSTALL ON WINDOWS

  1. Check out from github

     cd C:\Program Files\Vim   (or your installed path to Vim)
 rmdir /s vimfiles         (This deletes your old vim configurations. If you want to keep it, use move instead of rmdir.)

INSTALL & UPGRADE PLUGIN BUNDLES

All plugins (except vim-latex) were checked out as git submodules, which can be upgraded with git pull. For example, to upgrade Command-T

 cd ~/.vim/bundle/command-t
 git pull

To install a new plugin as a git submoudle, type the following commands.

 cd ~/.vim
 git submodule add [GIT-REPOSITORY-URL] bundle/[PLUGIN-NAME]
