A Vim plugin that visualizes Vim's undo history as a tree graph in a side panel, letting users browse and switch between undo branches. It is written purely in Vim script with no external dependencies and never writes to disk.
Use cases
- visualize vim undo history as a tree
- switch between undo branches in vim
- recover edits that were overwritten by later changes
- browse persistent undo history across sessions
- toggle an undo tree panel with a hotkey
When to choose
- you use Vim or Neovim and want a graphical view of undo branches
- you frequently undo past branch points and need to navigate divergent edit history
- you want a dependency-free Vim script plugin
When to avoid
- you use an editor other than Vim/Neovim
- you only need simple linear undo/redo
- you prefer built-in :undo commands without a visual panel
