Question

Hello, I tried to add a plugin from gitlab with mini.deps and couldn't succeed. Is only github available with Mini.deps ?

@fabz-fr Could you please share your mini.deps configuration? The GitLab link currently looks like this:

local add = MiniDeps.add
add({
  source = 'https://gitlab.com/user/repo',
})

Yes, indeed, installing from GitLab is possible, but with a caveat. For example, installing this plugin showed warning that link needs .git suffix, but plugin still correctly installs. Here is the full code snippet (with later lazy-loading):

MiniDeps.later(
  function()
    MiniDeps.add({
      source = 'https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/editor-extensions/gitlab.vim.git',
      name = 'gitlab.vim',
    })
  end
)
