vim creates copies of my files after saving?

问题

HI there,

Using vim and whenever I make a change and save a file vim seems to create a backup file. I can see that it's the file before I made my change and saved. How can I prevent this or hide these files?

I type :wq to save and quit.

回答1:

Add set nobackup to your ~/.vimrc file.

回答2:

Yeak, preferably you should set sth like :

set backupdir=~/backup/vim
set dir=~/backup/vim/swap
set undodir=~/backup/vim/undos
set undofile
set bk

Note also the savevers plugin.

So you'll never have files in places you don't want, but keep the backup functionnality.
