I keep all of my dotfiles in a git repo, so when I'm setting up a new machine I can just:

cd ~
git init
git remote add github git@github.com:MatrixManAtYrService/home.git
git pull origin master
git submodule update --init --recursive

...and all of my customizations are present. I want to do the same for wing (more about it here: https://dotfiles.github.io/).

I get the impression that some of the contents of the settings directory would be inappropriate to sync this way. Like, we definitely do want to sync ~/.wingpro7/preferences but probably not license* or recent*

Would you recommend that I write a ~/.wingpro7/.gitignore so that the sync includes everything except for the things I've mentioned? Or should I just sync ~/.wingpro7/preferences and ignore the bulk of that folder?

Say I want to highlight all lines between my cursor and the string 'foo'. I am accustomed to being able to do one of:

V/foo[enter]

V?foo[enter]

Depending on whether 'foo' is before or after my cursor. The search works, and the selection works, but when I hit [enter] to stop typing my search string and start manipulating the selection, the selection goes away and I'm left back where I started.

Hi, if this isn't the place to report bugs than please point me in the right direction.

I've noticed this about vim mode:

If you're in normal mode and you type 'ciw' it will delete the word your cursor is on and put you in insert mode so you can replace it. So far so good. Later, if you have your cursor on some other word, typing '.' should replace that word too. Instead, it just does the equivalent of 'p'. That is, it doesn't replace the word, it just inserts your replacement into the middle of it.
