Migrate from Sublime text 2 to Sublime text3

I need to migrate from sublime text 2 to sublime text 3 to have all the same configuration/plugins I have installed on the sublime text2.

I installed sublime text 3, but it does not have any of the sublime text 2 packages and settings. I really dont know if there are any straight forward methods to migrate or just copy of some folders.

What is the difference between Sublime Text 2 and 3?

Here's why – Sublime Text 3 brings some major benefits compared to version 2: Most plugins have caught up and are built on top of ST3 now. If you check in Package Control, there are more ST3 packages today than there are ST2 packages. Sublime Text 2 development has stopped while Sublime Text 3 is in active development.

Is Sublime Text no longer free?

Sublime Text may be downloaded and evaluated for free, however a license must be purchased for continued use. There is currently no enforced time limit for the evaluation.

Is Sublime Text outdated?

Sublime is quite alive, and as stated previously, has some alpha testing going on. Any large project has old bugs going back a long way.

I wrote a blog post detailing how to migrate over from Sublime Text 2 over to ST3.

Read: "Can I use ST3 yet? Migrating to Sublime Text 3"

TLDR:

  1. Use git to install the python3 branch of Package Control. Step by step instructions available here;

  2. Move over all your folders in Sublime Text 2/Packages/ to Sublime Text 3/Packages/ except two: Default and Package Control.
