I have file associations set on my system to launch files in existing Vim with --remote-tab-silent when I double-click them, and when I view a large log file, suddenly all my undo history is lost for all my code files! I really wish 'undolevels' were not a global option, but it is, so LargeFile messing with it is not very good when using the same Vim for everything.

Hmm, I don't typically use the undo functions, so please help me with this:

I think I can get a copy of the undo situation with undotree(). Is
there a way to restore it? I'm thinking of doing a save-undo ... work
with large file ... restore undo scenario.
