Local History
|
|
*************
|
|
|
|
When editing files, vim provides great undo support. However, the
|
|
undo information is lost when you close a file or utilize one of the
|
|
few eclim features that require a reload of the current file.
|
|
|
|
Eclipse provides a nice feature which can help combat both of these
|
|
deficiencies. It includes support for a local history, which is
|
|
basically a simplistic version control system that is updated every
|
|
time you save a file. Using this local history, you can view diffs
|
|
against previously saved versions of your file or revert to one of
|
|
those revisions.
|
|
|
|
By default, as long as eclimd is running, any writes you make to a
|
|
file inside of a project will automatically be saved as a local
|
|
history revision.
|
|
|
|
*:History*
|
|
|
|
:History - Opens a temporary buffer showing the local history for the
|
|
current file. In this buffer you can perform the following actions
|
|
using the specified key bindings:
|
|
|
|
- <cr> - view the contents of the revision under the cursor.
|
|
|
|
- d - diff the revision under the cursor against the current contents.
|
|
|
|
- r - revert the current file to the revision under the cursor.
|
|
|
|
- c - clear the local history for the file.
|
|
|
|
*:HistoryClear*
|
|
|
|
:HistoryClear[!] - Clears the local history for the current file.
|
|
When the bang (!) is supplied, you are not prompted before clearing
|
|
the history.
|
|
|
|
*:HistoryDiffNext*
|
|
|
|
:HistoryDiffNext - While the history buffer is open, this command
|
|
allows you to diff the current file against the next entry in the
|
|
history stack.
|
|
|
|
*:HistoryDiffPrev*
|
|
|
|
:HistoryDiffPrev - Just like :HistoryDiffNext but diffs against the
|
|
previous entry in the stack.
|

Configuration
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
Eclipse Settings
|
|
|
|
- When writing to the local history, eclim simply proxies the request
|
|
to eclipse, so all eclipse settings are honored. To modify these
|
|
settings you currently have to do so inside of the eclipse gui.
|
|
First shut down eclimd if you are running a headless version, then
|
|
open the eclipse gui and navigate to:
|
|
|
|
>
|
|
Window > Preferences > General > Workspace > Local History
|
|
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
And there you can edit your settings as necessary.
|
|
|
|
Vim Settings
|
|
|
|
*g:EclimHistoryDiffOrientation*
|
|
|
|
- g:EclimHistoryDiffOrientation (Default: 'vertical') - When
|
|
initiating diffs, this setting controls whether the diff window is
|
|
opened as a horizontal split or vertical. Supported values include
|
|
'horizontal' and 'vertical'.
