To respectfully offer the counter position, this is a feature that ensures the cursor line is surrounded by lines of context whenever possible. What has changed between vim 7 and 8 is that the maintainers have switched from one point of view to the other. I don't see any way to reconcile the two points of view other than to provide an option to allow either position. Thankfully, that is already done. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
