Cloned repo to ~/.vim/pack but Syntax highlighting does not work

[haphamdev]

I cloned this repo using git clone https://github.com/edgedb/edgedb-vim ~/.vim/pack/edgedb/start/edgedb but when I opened default.esdl, syntax highlighting does not work on my neovim.

What should be the filetype?

I tried :set ft=edgeql but did not work.

I had to

set ft=edgeql
source ~/.vim/pack/edgedb/start/edgedb/syntax/edgeql.vim

and it worked. Let me investigate why the syntax was not souced automatically. The filetype can be set easily with an autocmd.

Found the solution. Let me create a pull request.
