Description

This module augments Emacs' built-in undo system to be more intuitive and to persist across Emacs sessions.

Maintainers

This module has no dedicated maintainers.

Module Flags

  • +tree Uses undo-tree instead of undo-fu, which is a little less stable, but offers branching undo history and a visualizer for navigating it.

Hacks

  • Both undo-fu and undo-tree have been modified to use zstd to compress undo history if it is available.
  • undo-tree only

    • Text properties are stripped from undo history to shrink it.
    • Undo-tree is too chatty about saving its history files. This has be "silenced". i.e. It's visible in \*Messages\*, but won't appear in your minibuffer.
  • unfo-fu only

    • Doom defines undo-fu-mode to make it easier to add hooks/mode-local keybinds.

Prerequisites

This module has no prereqisites.
