DirDiff plugin for Vim

If you like Vim's diff mode, you would love to do this recursively on two directories!

DirDiff Session

Installation

cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone git://github.com/will133/vim-dirdiff

With vim-plug, in your ~/.vimrc:

Plug 'will133/vim-dirdiff'

With Vim 8+'s default packaging system:

mkdir -p ~/.vim/pack/bundle/start
cd ~/.vim/pack/bundle/start
git clone git://github.com/will133/vim-dirdiff

Usage

:DirDiff <dir1> <dir2>

To open DirDiff from the command line, run vim -c "DirDiff dir1 dir2" or add the following function to your shell init file:

function dirdiff()
{
    # Shell-escape each path:
    DIR1=$(printf '%q' "\$1"); shift
    DIR2=$(printf '%q' "\$1"); shift
    vim $@ -c "DirDiff $DIR1 $DIR2"
}

If you use pathogen, you can use :Helptags to regenerate documentation. You then can see ":h dirdiff" for more information.
