Applied in commit a08282f. :)

Well, to get the latest bugfixes you need to clone the Git repository.
And once you've got Vimpulse's repository in your `load-path', you
might as well stick with the multi-file scheme.

The single file was uploaded to EmacsWiki whenever Vimpulse hit a
stable "release". But with the quicker feedback cycle that Git
facilitates, and with quite a few things still needing work, it's
easier to just "release" via Git. Nowadays, I use branches to keep
unstable changes off the stable(r) master branch which everyone uses.
