I'm trying to keep my gVIM config in centralized place. For this, i have done
mklink c:\users\me\.vimrc c:\users\me\configs\_vimrc
That works fine until i change $MYVIMRC inside VIM. This instantly breaks symlink (c:\users\me.vimrc stop being a symlink and became ordinary file). Is it any way to fix this trange behavior? OS is Windows Vista with latest updates. gVIM is 7.2 from official site.
You are right, setting 'set backupcopy=yes' fixes problem on Vista+. Thanks! – grigoryvp – 2009-10-09T07:08:59.857
Was backupcopy set to no before? auto is probably a better setting than yes, assuming it works in this case. – Captain Segfault – 2009-10-09T22:38:18.837
