<p>
You know that Vim lets you undo changes like any text editor. What you might
2010-10-29 16:35:30 -04:00
not know is that it doesn't just keep a list of your changes &mdash; it keeps
2010-10-29 13:31:33 -04:00
a goddamed <a href="http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Using_undo_branches">tree</a> of them.
</p>
<p>
Say you make a change (call it X), undo that change, and then make another
change (call it Y). With most editors, change X is now gone forever. With Vim
you can get it back.
</p>
<p>
The problem is that trying to do this in the real world is painful. Vim gives
you an <code>:undolist</code> command that shows you the leaves of the tree. Good luck
finding the change you want in that list.
</p>
<p>
Gundo is a plugin to make browsing this ridiculously powerful undo tree less
painful.
</p>

<h1>Requirements</h1>
<p>
Gundo requires Vim 7.3+ compiled with Python support, and Python 2.4+.
</p>
</section>
<section>
<a name="installation"></a>
<h1>Installation</h1>
<p>Use Pathogen. Don't use pathogen? Start.</p>
<pre>hg clone http://bitbucket.org/sjl/gundo.vim ~/.vim/bundle/gundo</pre>
<p>There's a git mirror if you prefer:</p>
<pre>git clone http://github.com/sjl/gundo.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/gundo</pre>
<p>Add a mapping to your ~/.vimrc (change the key to suit your taste):</p>
<pre>nnoremap &lt;F5&gt; :GundoToggle&lt;CR&gt;</pre>
</section>
<section>
<a name="usage"></a>
<h1>Usage</h1>
<p>
We'll get to the technical details later, but if you're a human the first
thing you need to do is add a mapping to your vimrc file to toggle the undo
graph:
</p>
<pre>nnoremap &lt;F5&gt; :GundoToggle&lt;CR&gt;</pre>
<p>
Change the mapped key to suit your taste. We'll stick with <code>&lt;F5&gt;</code> because that's
what the author uses.
</p>
<p>
Now you can press <code>&lt;F5&gt;</code> to toggle the undo graph and preview pane, which will
look something like this:
</p>
<pre>
Undo graph File

+-----------------------------------+---------------------------+
Preview pane
</pre>
<p>
Your current position in the undo tree is marked with an <code>@</code> character. Other
nodes are marked with an <code>o</code> character.
</p>
<p>
When you toggle open the graph Gundo will put your cursor on your current
position in the tree. You can move up and down the graph with the <code>j</code> and
<code>k</code> keys.
</p>
<p>
You can move to the top of the graph (the newest state) with <code>gg</code> and to the
bottom of the graph (the oldest state) with <code>G</code>.
</p>
<p>
As you move between undo states the preview pane will show you a unified diff
of the change that state made.
</p>
<p>
2010-11-10 11:28:27 -05:00
Pressing <code>return</code> on a state (or double clicking on it) will
revert the contents of the file to match that state.
2010-10-29 13:31:33 -04:00
</p>
2010-11-09 21:13:21 -05:00
<p>
2010-11-10 11:28:27 -05:00
You can use <code>p</code> on a state to make the preview window show the
diff between your current state and the selected state, instead of a preview
of what the selected state changed.
2010-11-09 21:13:21 -05:00
</p>
2010-10-29 13:31:33 -04:00
<p>
Pressing <code>P</code> while on a state will initiate "play to" mode targeted at that
state. This will replay all the changes between your current state and the
target, with a slight pause after each change. It's mostly useless, but can be
2010-10-29 16:35:30 -04:00
fun to watch and see where your editing lags &mdash; that might be a good place to
2010-10-29 13:31:33 -04:00
define a new mapping to speed up your editing.
</p>
<p>
Pressing <code>q</code> while in the undo graph will close it. You can also just press your
toggle mapping key.
</p>
</section>
<section>
<a name="configuration"></a>
<h1>Configuration</h1>
<p>
You can tweak the behavior of Gundo by setting a few variables
in your :vimrc file. For example:
</p>
<pre>
let g:gundo_width = 60
let g:gundo_preview_height = 40
let g:gundo_right = 1
</pre>
<a name="gundo_width"></a>
<h2>g:gundo_width</h2>
<p>Set the horizontal width of the Gundo graph (and preview).</p>
<p>Default: 45</p>
<a name="gundo_preview_height"></a>
<h2>g:gundo_preview_height</h2>
<p>Set the vertical height of the Gundo preview.</p>
<p>Default: 15</p>
<a name="gundo_preview_bottom"></a>
<h2>g:gundo_preview_bottom</h2>
<p>
Force the preview window below current windows instead of below
the graph. This gives the preview window more space to show the
unified diff.
</p>
<p>Example:</p>
<pre>
+--------+ +--------+
!g! ! ! !g!
!g! ! or ! !g!
!g!______! !______!g!
!g!pppppp! !pppppp!g!
+--------+ +--------+
</pre>
<p>Default: 0</p>
<a name="gundo_right"></a>
<h2>g:gundo_right</h2>
<p>
Set this to 1 to make the Gundo graph (and preview) open on the
right side instead of the left.
</p>
<p>Default: 0 (off, open on the left side)</p>
2010-11-02 00:07:18 -04:00
<a name="gundo_help"></a>
<h2>g:gundo_help</h2>
<p>Set this to 0 to disable the help text in the Gundo graph window.</p>
<p>Default: 1 (show the help)</p>
2010-11-02 00:07:18 -04:00
<a name="gundo_disable"></a>
<h2>g:gundo_disable</h2>
<p>Set this to 1 to disable Gundo entirely.</p>
<p>
Useful if you use the same <code>~/.vim</code> folder on
multiple machines, and some of them may not have Python support.
</p>
<p>Default: 0 (Gundo is enabled as usual)</p>
2011-03-09 19:35:42 -05:00
<a name="gundo_map_move"></a>
<h2>g:gundo_map_move_[older/newer]</h2>
<p>
These options let you change the keys that navigate the
undo graph. This is useful if you use a Dvorak keyboard and
have changed your movement keys.
</p>
<p>
Default:<br/>
gundo_map_move_older: "j"<br/>
gundo_map_move_newer: "k"
</p>
<a name="gundo_close_on_revert"></a>
<h2>g:gundo_close_on_revert</h2>
<p>Set this to 1 to automatically close the Gundo windows when reverting.</p>
<p>Default: 0 (windows do not automatically close)</p>
<a name="gundo_statusline"></a>
<h2>g:gundo_[preview/tree]_statusline</h2>
<p>Set these to a string to display it as the status line for each Gundo window.</p>
<p>Default: unset (windows use the default statusline)</p>
2012-02-15 10:27:25 -05:00
<a name="#gundo_auto_preview"></a>
<h2>g:gundo_auto_preview</h2>
<p>Set this to 1 to rendering diff automatically with cursor move.</p>
<p>Default: 1 (auto preview diff)</p>

<p>
The graphing code was all taken from Mercurial, hence the
GPLv2+ license.
</p>
<p>
The plugin was heavily inspired by histwin.vim, and the code
for scratch.vim helped the author get started.
