Description Coacher 2016-11-01 23:20:01 UTC

Hello.

vim-core installs default vimrc, which has the following lines:
  " When editing a file, always jump to the last cursor position
  autocmd BufReadPost *
        \ if ! exists("g:leave_my_cursor_position_alone") |
        \     if line("'\"") > 0 && line ("'\"") <= line("$") |
        \         exe "normal g'\"" |
        \     endif |
        \ endif

Notice that this autocommand executes 'normal' instead of 'normal!', so user mappings are in effect. This is wrong.

Please fix.

Fixed in the tree without rev-ing the file.
