Our current vim package is 2.5 years old, and the current patch set on top of
it to bring it up to today is ~1500 patches. Interestingly, every. single.
commit. is tagged in git, so updating to a more recent release is rather easy.
This has been one of the things that has kept me using Debian's vim over
Guix's vim.In this patch I've only updated it to 7.4.963 because that's the
version Debian is currently shipping (in sid), which is only 3 months old,
and some of the later versions had issues with the test. This'll bump us
forward a lot, which is a good starting point.
