Show HN: Text undo that doesn't lose your edit history
- leephillips 1y agoThis is built in to vim.
- Bjartr 1y agoFor those interested, here's the Vim docs for the undo tree https://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/usr_32.html https://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/usr_32.html
- cousin_it 1y agoMy approach was linear, not a tree. The innovation (a small one) is how to make linear actually feel kinda ok, but at the same time not lose work.
- leephillips 1y agoIf I understand correctly, the vim undo tree is a superset of your approach: in vim you can go forward and backward in time, seeing all versions of the file, and need not explicitly deal with the tree.
