@telemachus Thanks, that will reduce build time and server load!

(As a side note, I've chosen not to use Mercurial to fetch a specific version of Vim because:

1. it is possible to skip specific (maybe flawed) patches by modifying the patches method,
2. you can always use --HEAD to fetch the most recent revision with Mercurial, like brew install vim --HEAD, and
3. I love a coffee break watching growing 300+ progress bars ;-)

I got the error:
/usr/bin/patch: **** Can't open patch file 065-homebrew.diff : No such file or directory
Error: Failure while executing: /usr/bin/patch -f -p0 -i 065-homebrew.diff

I made a slight modification to the fork by telemachus to make using the homebrew python easy https://gist.github.com/2402135

when you use --use-brew-python flag it will add the option "--with-python-config-dir=/usr/local/lib/python2.7/config"

This is just for my understanding. Why not just use MacVim? I run MacVim on OS X in my terminal with a simple alias, but also get the option to run it as a full windowed app.

in my .bashrc

alias vim="mvim -v"
alias vi="mvim -v"

Is there something I'm missing about MacVim vs Vim?

Thanks.

Vim is updated more often than MacVim from my understanding at least.

I didn't know you could do that. Thanks.

@uasi ここの version 、一旦 to_s しないとエラー出るようになってるっぽいですよ。

patch_level = version.split('.').last.to_i

latest version of brew does not allow split directly, use to_s like in this: https://gist.github.com/3423922

I have problem installing vim with anaconda Python. All plugin with Python code are not working. Is there a way to circumvent this problem ?
