Get Better At Yanking And Putting In Vim

a couple of nifty tricks to help you copy-paste better:

1. reselecting previously selected text (i use this to fix botched selections):

   gv  " :h gv for more
       " you can use `o` in visual mode to go to the `Other` end of the selection
       " use a motion to fix the selection

2. reselecting previously yanked text:

   `[v`]
   `[         " marks the beginning of the previously yanked text   :h `[
   `]         " marks the end                                       :h `]
    v         " visual select everything in between
   
   nnoremap gb `[v`]    " "a quick map to perform the above

3. pasting and indenting text (in one go):

   ]p   " put (p) and adjust indent to current line
   ]P   " put the text before the cursor (P) and adjust indent to current line
