Vim mapping persists even after removal from .vimrc - vim

Question

This is a really strange issue and it's been driving me insane. At one point, in my .vimrc file, I had a line that looked like the following:
nnoremap <tab> gg=G''
which I used to re-indent my whole file. Time goes on and I decide that I want to use tab like %, to move between open/close tags/parens/etc. So I remove the line above, and remap the command to control-i (like Eclipse) and replace it with
nnoremap <tab> %
vnoremap <tab> %
I save the file, source it, close vim, restart my computer, do whatever, but regardless of what I do, pressing tab still indents the entire file. When I check the mapping with
:verbose map <tab>
The output I get is:
v <Tab> * %
Last set from ~/.vimrc
n <Tab> * gg=G''
Last set from ~/.vimrc
Similarly, if I try
:verbose nnoremap <tab>
I get:
n <Tab> * gg=G''
Last set from ~/.vimrc
I'm really not sure what's going on here, that mapping most certainly does not exist any more. Here is my .vimrc:

Answer 1

<c-i> and <tab> share the same key codes so they can not be distinguished from each other.
Use a different mapping than <c-i>. I suggest you use leader, e.g. nnoremap <leader>i gg=G''
For more help see:
:h keycodes
:h mapleader
