# Buffer Time Travel
|
||||
|
||||
Vim allows you to go to an *earlier* text state for a buffer with
|
||||
`:earlier`. For instance, if you want to see the state of the buffer from 10
|
||||
minutes ago:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
:earlier 10m
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Similarly, you can move back toward the present text state of the buffer
|
||||
with `:later`. If 10 minutes earlier was too far, you can come back 5
|
||||
minutes like so:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
:later 5m
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
I encountered these in [Nick Nisi's 'Vim +
|
||||
Tmux'](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5r6yzFEXajQ) talk.
