This avoids loading a different version of the plugin or loading the installed plugin while developing locally.
The new command :MerlinOccurrencesProjectWide acts similarly to :MerlinOccurrences except that: - It uses project-wide occurrences. - It uses the quickfix list instead of the location list. - It doesn't show text extract in the list.
from other computations. This function is likely to be reused later.
Files containing occurrences are read in a first step and lines containing an occurrence are kept in memory. Vim potentially has open buffers for some of these files but this couldn't be used reliably as unused buffers would be emptied of their content. We don't open new buffers as that could trigger expensive function in plugins and would use more memory.

The substitution is done on Vim's side and opening an unbounded number of buffers could interact badly with plugins or different Vim configurations.
Perhaps project-wide renaming could be implemented by Merlin ?
Project-wide incremental search and rename are not implemented but could be in the future.
The same patch based on top of merlin with occurrences can be tested here: voodoos#11
To test this, I do:
