vim: consider making +huge a default variant

Reported by: blair (Blair Zajac) Owned by: raimue (Rainer Müller)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.1.2
Keywords: Cc: larryv (Lawrence Velázquez)
Port: vim vim-app MacVim

Description

Coming from Ubuntu or Fedora, vim is built using --with-features=huge, so coming to a default vim install on Mac OS X, vim is missing a number of features.

What do you think about add +huge to the list of default variants?

Good point. In the past, I was used to different packages such as vim, vim-full and vim-tiny in other distributions. However, as you say, it seems like this has changed and others are now offering larger packages by default.

​Debian/Ubuntu: vim: huge, vim-tiny: small ​FreeBSD: vim: big, vim-lite: normal(?) ​Fedora: vim-enhanced: huge, vim-minimal: small

Looking at :help +feature-list suggests that only :profile is additionally enabled with +huge compared to +big... So a new default seems reasonable and I will add a default_variant with the next version update.
