None aside from the grunt work. My comment was sort of an "in the 
meanwhile, symlinks with pathogen should work."

That probably won't be much of an issue... Aside from the fact that it 
will create a new head when anyone pulls down the new repo (hopefully 
that wouldn't confuse any automated package managers, like Arch Linux's 
yaourt (there is already a vim-latex-git on AUR)).

Alternatively, you could keep the htdocs in the history. Clone the 
current repo into two, and then (within each clone) move the files to 
their desired locations and commit the changes. Of course, you probably 
don't need to maintain the changelog within the new "vim-latex-htdocs" 
repo, and so that one could be split out regardless.
