I tried this: :set undolevels? undolevels=4000 :set undolevels=-1 :set undolevels=4000 And the undo history was *not* purged. Undo history is only purged if I edit something in between the 2 ":set undolevels=...": :set undolevels=-1 .. edit something... :set undolevels=4000 (undo history is now purged) I'm not sure how useful it is to be able to purge undo history anyway. I don't think I would need to do that. What I would find more useful, when performing multiple undos with persistent-undo, is to display a message such as: "undo reached state where file was last read/written" ... so that user is warned when doing multiple undos that it can go back in time earlier than when file was last read/written if he continues to undo. I see an item added recently on the todo list which would also be useful: - undofile: keep markers where the file was written/read, so that it's easy to go back to a saved version of the file ":earlier 1file"?
