Manual installation
-------------------
The plugin uses `git` submodules to fetch the vendored versions of Jedi.

You might want to use `pathogen <https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen>`_ or
`Vundle <https://github.com/gmarik/vundle>`_ to install jedi-vim.
To install using standard Vim 8 plugin system:

.. code-block:: sh

The first thing you need after that is an up-to-date version of Jedi. Install
``git submodule update --init --recursive`` in your jedi-vim repository.
mkdir -p ~/.vim/pack/git-plugins/start
git clone --recursive https://github.com/davidhalter/jedi-vim.git ~/.vim/pack/git-plugins/start/jedi-vim

btw: do you know if there is a preferred/recommended way to update Vim packages?

@abitrolly do you know? How do you keep them updated?

(as for me: I am using vim-plug basically, but given the amount of local changes I still update them manually in general, i.e. by updating/merging into the Git checkout)

I update with plain git.

git -C ~/.vim/pack/git-plugins/start/jedi-vim --rebase pull


Or you might want to use `pathogen <https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen>`_ or
`Vundle <https://github.com/gmarik/vundle>`_ to install jedi-vim.

We can merge this with the rest to only include instructions for vim-plug then.

@abitrolly what do you think? Should I/we go ahead and do so here?

I am not a user of vim plugin managers, so won't rely on my opinion towards them.
