I've seen in various posts people mention commands like
undo-redo, undo-redo-only, redo, redo-only, and I don't know
what they are referring to. I understand how repeated uses
of undo works in emacs and what happens when you break a
chain of them, but it sounds like people are describing
something else.
I'm using Emacs 27.1 (the carbon port). I have commands
`undo' and `undo-only' but no commands with redo in their
names other than `org-agenda-redo'. In the emacs manual the
only index entry for redo refers to the Undo node which
doesn't describe any command named `redo' or `redo-only'.
I've tried undo-tree before but didn't care for it. It has
a command called `undo-tree-redo' but nothing called
`redo-only'.
Could someone point me at some explanation of what they're
referring to when they say redo-only?
