Search undo history

[Lifepillar]

Is there a built-in way or a plugin to extend / to the undo history?

Use case: working on some code, I deleted a function a few hours ago,
and I wanted to reinstate it. Using :earlier/:later did the job, but
required a bit of trial and error.

Thanks,
Life.

There isn't a built-in way. And for your example usecase, I think git
would be a better tool to handle it.

Possibly the Mundo plugin (https://github.com/simnalamburt/vim-mundo)
will help with this use case. This plugin visualizes the undo tree,
speeds up traversing the tree and supports searching in the changes.
