vimscriptuploader.rb -- Upload files to http://www.vim.org
==========================================================

EXPERIMENTAL

This ruby script uploads vim plugins to http://www.vim.org\. You have to
provide a script definition YAML file that has the following fields:

* id: The plugin's script ID on www.vim.org
* version: The plugin version number
* file: The filename that should be uploaded
* message: The version comment

Example YAML file:

---
id: "123"
version: "0.01"
file: /home/moi/.vim/vimballs/foo.vba
message: |-
Fixed this
Done that

vimscriptdef.rb can generate such YAML files from a vimball recipe.

Those values can also be provided on the command line.

Example use
-----------

Load the user name and the password from a YAML file:

vimscriptuploader.rb --config vim_org.yml myplugin.yml

where vim\_org.yml could look like:

---
username: foo
password: bar

Provide all arguments on the command line:

vimscriptuploader.rb --username foo --password bar \\
--id 123 --version 0.01 --message "Updated this and that" \\
--file myplugin.vba

Create YAML plugin definitions with vimscriptdef.rb
------------------------------------------------------

The vimscriptdef.rb ruby script can be used to create a YAML plugin
definition that can be fed to vimscriptuploader.rb.

In order to make this work, your scripts have to comply to the following
convention:

* At least one file must contain a `GetLatestVimScripts` tagline. If the
file is "foo.vim", the line must look somewhat like:

`" GetLatestVimScripts: 123 0 :AutoInstall: foo.vim`

* At least one file must set a global `loaded_PLUGIN` variable. If the
plugin is "bar", the corresponding line must look like:

`let loaded_bar = VERSION_NUMBER`

where `VERSION_NUMBER` is an integer that complies with vim's version
numbering system (see :help v:version).

* If you use git tags, vimscriptdef.rb will compile the comment version
from the commit messages since the latest tag. The following tag
formats are supported (e.g. if the version number is 1.02): v102, 102,
1.02.

If you don't use tags, version comments are limited to simple messages
if the configuration file defines a field `history_fmt` that must
contain one `%s`, which will be filled in with the plugin name, the
formatted string will be posted as version comment.

The MD5 checksum will be added to the version comment.

Dependencies
------------

* ruby 1.8
* www/mechanize
* git (to extract log messages and tags for the YAML script definition)
