Are you talking about undo states? The basic idea is to do something
like this on a state you want to remember:
:let my_old_state=changenr()
and then you can jump to that change, using:
:exe ":u" my_old_state

But, this is in my opinion very clumsy. So I would suggest to try my
plugin histwin http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2932
that let's you tag certain state, jump to and diff previous changes.

Christian
