Junk !
No repo found there.
Not junk, this was the right solution until last week (used this for like half a year)
So new install notes

Hmm if you do that you are actually removing sudo on the 3rd line?!
I have the following issue:
Transaction check error:
file /usr/share/man/man1/vim.1.gz from install of vim-common-2:8.0.003-1.gf.el7.x86_64 conflicts with file from package vim-minimal-2:7.4.160-4.el7.x86_64
Error Summary
I got it working by hand if it helps:
wget http://mirror.ghettoforge.org/distributions/gf/el/7/plus/x86_64/vim-enhanced-8.0.003-1.gf.el7.x86_64.rpm
wget http://mirror.ghettoforge.org/distributions/gf/el/7/plus/x86_64/vim-common-8.0.003-1.gf.el7.x86_64.rpm
wget http://mirror.ghettoforge.org/distributions/gf/el/7/plus/x86_64/vim-minimal-8.0.003-1.gf.el7.x86_64.rpm

sudo rpm -Uvh vim-enhanced-8.0.003-1.gf.el7.x86_64.rpm
Just compile and install:
git clone https://github.com/vim/vim.git
cd vim
#make distclean # if you build Vim before
make -j8
sudo make install
cp src/vim /usr/bin

if you don't remove sudo you can't uninstall vim-minimal, as it is a dependency, that is what the conflict is about
don't worry as long as you don't close your session or are able to login as root, you don't actually need sudo, and you reinstall it with the upgraded vim, the line after

how to fix?
remove the /etc/yum.repos.d/mcepl-vim8-epel-7.repo by hand and execute the steps from @DarkMukke
rpm -Uvh http://mirror.ghettoforge.org/distributions/gf/gf-release-latest.gf.el7.noarch.rpm
rpm --import http://mirror.ghettoforge.org/distributions/gf/RPM-GPG-KEY-gf.el7
yum -y remove vim-minimal vim-common vim-enhanced sudo
yum -y --enablerepo=gf-plus install vim-enhanced sudo
Environment:
[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/centos-release
CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 (Core)
[root@localhost ~]#
After applying:
rpm -Uvh http://mirror.ghettoforge.org/distributions/gf/gf-release-latest.gf.el7.noarch.rpm
rpm --import http://mirror.ghettoforge.org/distributions/gf/RPM-GPG-KEY-gf.el7
yum -y remove vim-minimal vim-common vim-enhanced sudo
yum -y --enablerepo=gf-plus install vim-enhanced sudo
I found it left vim-filesystem on 7:
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -qa |grep vim
vim-filesystem-7.4.160-4.el7.x86_64
vim-minimal-8.0.003-1.gf.el7.x86_64
vim-enhanced-8.0.003-1.gf.el7.x86_64
vim-common-8.0.003-1.gf.el7.x86_64
So I suggest to append vim-filesystem into @DarkMukke's solution.

some issue as well.
So new install notes
rpm -Uvh http://mirror.ghettoforge.org/distributions/gf/gf-release-latest.gf.el7.noarch.rpm rpm --import http://mirror.ghettoforge.org/distributions/gf/RPM-GPG-KEY-gf.el7 yum -y remove vim-minimal vim-common vim-enhanced sudo yum -y --enablerepo=gf-plus install vim-enhanced sudo
Notice that you must perform this instructions sequentially under sudo su or as a single bash script.
Otherwise, you would occasionally uninstall sudo.
rm /etc/yum.repos.d/mcepl-vim8-epel-7.repo
Thanks everyone for the discovery and feedback - I have added an update to the gist to fix the issue that the old repository listing is no longer available.
Notable mention goes to @dmakushin
Thank you! The compilation instructions continue to work on vim 8.2. & Centos 7
Great resource.
with a few changes I think this also work for configuring the build and install step (my python setup is different)
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-features=huge --enable-multibyte --with-python-config-dir=/usr/lib64/python3.6/config-3.6m-x86_64-linux-gnu/ --enable-pythoninterp=yes
Important to mention that vim --version will still return the old version (7.4 in my case) even after upgrading (I've only tried Method 2, compiling from source), which is very confusing, especially if you try to do this through a script and check the version.
In order to see the correct version, you should log out and log back in.
dnf copr enable hnakamur/vim
dnf install vimvim --version -> 8.1.2300-1.el7
