Completion from past vim inserts (or cache file)

[kovasap]

Anyone know of a way to get vim to complete from past "inserts"? For example, if i go into insert mode, make a change, then go into insert mode again, is there a way to complete if I want to do the exact same insert again? I know '.' repeats, but I often want to repeat the same insert i did a couple other inserts ago.

I think if I could get coc.nvim to complete from a cache file, that would be enough functionality to make this work. I could then have vim write the contents of each insert to that file (i think), and my functionality would work as expected.

Thanks!

My suggestion is use vim's register.

Sorry I'm not sure what you mean, could you be more specific?

@chemzqm following up on this - can you describe a bit more what you mean?

Use git.undoTrunk command from coc-git is more efficient for that purpose.
