I switched to vundle from pathogen and I'm much happier for it.

They're both great, but pathogen requires that you setup the plugin directories yourself which makes keeping the plugins updated a pain since you either set them up as their own git repos (which you have to remember to update) or git submodules if you're trying to maintain a repo of your entire configuration.

Vundle just requires a few lines in your config and is already git/github aware and just does the right thing. It's also trivial to see at a glance what I've installed.

Uninstalling a plugin from vundle is as easy as removing the line in the config and telling vundle to update.
