## What it is
A small Vim plugin that remaps the '.' repeat command so that plugin-provided mappings can be repeated as a whole. It exposes a simple repeat#set() API that other plugins call to make their maps dot-repeatable.

## Use cases
- repeat plugin mappings with the dot command in vim
- make surround.vim changes repeatable
- add dot-repeat support to my own vim plugin maps
- fix vim dot command only repeating last native command
- repeat custom vim operator mappings

## When to choose
- you use plugins like surround.vim or commentary.vim and want their maps repeatable with '.'
- you're writing a Vim plugin and want to expose dot-repeatable mappings

## When to avoid
- you don't use plugins with custom mappings
- you use Neovim-only plugins that handle repetition natively

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: stable
- function: editor, plugin-system, developer-tools
- domain: text-editors, developer-tools
- platform: editor-plugin, cross-platform
