#Macvim command line mac os x

This solution is not very portable (the path to svn may very well be different on other machines), but I have not found another way to solve this. This tells the plugin which executable to use. vimrc file: let VCSCommandSVNExec='/opt/subversion/bin/svn' Instead I configured the plugin around the issue, which still works rather nicely. I then gave up trying to solve this neatly. It gave /usr/bin precedence over /opt/subversion/bin. That worked but did not help, as it appended rather prepended the new location to MacVim’s $PATH. I tried adding a file with the extra location to the /etc/paths.d directory, as per this suggestion. Hence it is unaware of the /opt/subversion/bin/svn executable. It appears (from running :!which svn in MacVim) that MacVim (or so it seems any OS X app) ignores my $PATH adjustments in. After installing MacVim by dragging MacVim.app to the Applications folder, open up terminal and navigate to the uncompressed folder that has mvim. I am using MacVim, which is very nice, but it apparently doesn’t know about my 1.6.9 installation and complains. I have set my $PATH so that 1.6.9 (in /opt/subversion/bin) gets precedence over 1.4.4 (in /usr/bin).

#Macvim command line mac os x

I’ve got two copies of Subversion installed on my system: the default that comes with Mac OS X ( 1.2.4) and the one I manually installed ( 1.6.9). I tried to use the VCSCommand-plugin for Vim the other day, but I ran into a strange issue: the plugin tried to use an older version of subversion with my working copy, resulting in “this client is too old” error messages.
