Re: swap files reverting my work erroneously

The swap file stays around when vim crashes, for example. When it asks you if you want to recover, note that it also warns you to check the file and manually remove the swap file. It won't remove it for you. If you don't remove it, vim will detect it every time you open the file, and ask you to recover from it.
