Each time I do undo, it undoes all my previous commands to some set point. I haven't figured out what the catalist for that point is. I can make a change, let's say on line 51, and then make 10 other changes in various places in my document. Then, I hit "u" and all changes to the one on line 51 get undone. I have to go and redo all those changes manually. Then, I do a bunch more changes and accidently hit "u" again. I consider it an accident because I know this happens, it is just a habit to use undo. All my changes back to the original change on line 51 get undone.

I just lost about 45 minutes of work because I hit "u" at the wrong time. Unfortunately, I can't find a catalyst for the problem but it has happened to me twice tonight.

I will try to add more information if I can find the cause. For now, this is quite difficult to deal with because I am trying to not undo my changes for obvious reasons.
