patch 8.0.0716: not easy to start Vim cleanly commit https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/c4da113ef98dcfd6f2a088b1693c0317dcb5bf42 Author: Bram Moolenaar <Bram@vim.org> Date: Sat Jul 15 19:39:43 2017 +0200 patch 8.0.0716: not easy to start Vim cleanly Problem: Not easy to start Vim cleanly without changing the viminfo file. Not possible to know whether the -i command line flag was used. Solution: Add the --clean command line argument. Add the 'viminfofile' option. Add "-u DEFAULTS".

the first target to make vim is: reconfig
srcdir = .
VIMNAME = vim
EXNAME = ex
VIEWNAME = view
