Im not sure how other.vim tracks changes, between sessions. Say
viminfo contains information about filename1, that you edited in a
previous session. In the current session, you rename filename1 to
filename2. If you did not load filename1 fore editing in the current
session --vim has no way to know filename1 is now filename2. But
without such tracking, old filenames might stay in viminfo forever!
