Hello, I recently synced my fork, and I noticed that I lost syntax highlighting in most of filetypes I use daily.
Investigation showed me that treesitter's auto_install=true was dropped in 7ea937d.
To get highlighting back, I started adding missing filetypes to the list of parsers manually one-by-one, but it's quite annoying once you were used to auto_install.
So I dug more. In treesitter commit which removed auto_install they suggest using a separate plugin to keep the old behavior: nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter@ab230ea
https://github.com/lewis6991/ts-install.nvim
I was able to make it work in my fork: tpwo@ab0222a
Would you accept a PR doing something like that for the main repo? It's adding one more plugin, but having parsers installed automatically is quite convenient, so IMO it makes sense for the target audience of kickstart. Do you agree?
