Migrate from Sublime text 2 to Sublime text3
Your preferences/configuration from ST2 is in Packages/User (find it with Preferences -> Browse Packages). You can just copy that folder to to Packages folder in ST3.
About plugins it is best to check the already mentioned link: https://github.com/wbond/sublime_package_control/wiki/Sublime-Text-3-Compatible-Packages This wiki page explains which plugins can be installed via Package Control and which ones require manual installation.
Aditional info for windows users, to make ST3
as the default editor after migration.
If you keep both versions or if you uninstall ST2
... probably you will notice that you can't open files or associate open with
by default with ST3
.
I think I can help you get Open With/default editor working.
The problem is that the Sublime Text uninstaller doesn't remove a particular registry entry referring to Sublime Text 2's sublime_text.exe, which prevents Windows from adding an entry for Sublime Text 3's sublime_text.exe.To correct it manually, open
regedit
and navigate to:
Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\
find the
sublime_text.exe
entry, and delete it. You should now be able to set Sublime Text 3 as the default editor for anything you want.

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:
Use git to install the python3 branch of Package Control. Step by step instructions available here;
Move over all your folders in
Sublime Text 2/Packages/
toSublime Text 3/Packages/
except two:Default
andPackage Control
.
