2009年10月12日 · In Vim, I did too much undo. How do I undo this (that is, redo)?

This answer says: Vim's undo/redo system is unbeatable. Type something, undo, type something else, and you can still get back the first thing you typed because Vim uses an undo tree rather than a stack.

2017年11月28日 · Similar to this question, is there a command to redo all undone changes in vim? Currently all I know is 1000<C-R> or similar, to just redo a large number of changes, but it feels cumbersome and rather arbitrary.

2016年12月13日 · You can make sure the directory exists by adding a statement silent !mkdir -p ~/.vim/undo inside the if-block. This solution assumes you have write permissions to create the directory ~/.vim/undo.

2015年3月17日 · I like the old vi undo/redo commands which allows undo (u) or redo (CTRL-R) to be pressed multiple times rather than browsing history to figure out the number of changes to undo. The vi command uses the ~/.exrc file, not ~/.vimrc so just add "set nocompatible" to the file.

2021年2月8日 · How can I undo all changes since opening a buffer? I imagine there may be some form of :earlier that does this. UPDATE: Many are suggesting solutions for traversing to earlier file writes. This isn't
