+==============================================================================
+1. Intro *GundoIntro*
+
+You know that Vim lets you undo changes like any text editor. What you might
+not know is that it doesn't just keep a list of your changes -- it keeps
+a goddamed |:undo-tree| of them.
+
+Say you make a change (call it X), undo that change, and then make another
+change (call it Y). With most editors, change X is now gone forever. With Vim
+you can get it back.
+
+The problem is that trying to do this in the real world is painful. Vim gives
+you an |:undolist| command that shows you the leaves of the tree. Good luck
+finding the change you want in that list.
+
+Gundo is a plugin to make browsing this ridiculously powerful undo tree less
+painful.
+
+==============================================================================
+2. Usage *GundoUsage*
+
+We'll get to the technical details later, but if you're a human the first
+thing you need to do is add a mapping to your |:vimrc| to toggle the undo
+graph: >
+
+ nnoremap <F5> :GundoToggle<CR>
+
+Change the mapped key to suit your taste. We'll stick with F5 because that's
+what the author uses.
+
+Now you can press F5 to toggle the undo graph and preview pane, which will
+look something like this: >
+
+ Undo graph File

+ +-----------------------------------+------------------------------------+
+ Preview pane
+
+Your current position in the undo tree is marked with an '@' character. Other
+nodes are marked with an 'o' character.
+
+When you toggle open the graph Gundo will put your cursor on your current
+position in the tree. You can move up and down the graph with the j and
+k keys.
+
+You can move to the top of the graph (the newest state) with gg and to the
+bottom of the graph (the oldest state) with G.
+
+As you move between undo states the preview pane will show you a unified diff
+of the change that state made.
+
+Pressing enter on a state (or double clicking on it) will revert the contents
+of the file to match that state.
+
+You can use p on a state to make the preview window show the diff between
+your current state and the selected state, instead of a preview of what the
+selected state changed.
+
+Pressing P while on a state will initiate "play to" mode targeted at that
+state. This will replay all the changes between your current state and the
+target, with a slight pause after each change. It's mostly useless, but can be
+fun to watch and see where your editing lags -- that might be a good place to
+define a new mapping to speed up your editing.
+
+Pressing q while in the undo graph will close it. You can also just press your
+toggle mapping key.
+
+==============================================================================
+3. Configuration *GundoConfig*
+
+You can tweak the behavior of Gundo by setting a few variables in your :vimrc
+file. For example: >
+
+ let g:gundo_width = 60
+ let g:gundo_preview_height = 40
+ let g:gundo_right = 1
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+3.1 g:gundo_width *gundo_width*
+
+Set the horizontal width of the Gundo graph (and preview).
+
+Default: 45
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+3.2 g:gundo_preview_height *gundo_preview_height*
+
+Set the vertical height of the Gundo preview.
+
+Default: 15
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+3.3 g:gundo_preview_bottom *gundo_preview_bottom*
+
+Force the preview window below current windows instead of below the graph.
+This gives the preview window more space to show the unified diff.
+
+Example:
+
+ +--------+ +--------+
+ !g! ! ! !g!
+ !g! ! or ! !g!
+ !g!______! !______!g!
+ !g!pppppp! !pppppp!g!
+ +--------+ +--------+
+
+Default: 0
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+3.4 g:gundo_right *gundo_right*
+
+Set this to 1 to make the Gundo graph (and preview) open on the right side
+instead of the left.
+
+Default: 0 (off, open on the left side)
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+3.5 g:gundo_help *gundo_help*
+
+Set this to 0 to disable the help text in the Gundo graph window.
+
+Default: 1 (show the help)
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+3.6 g:gundo_disable *gundo_disable*
+
+Set this to 1 to disable Gundo entirely.
+
+Useful if you use the same ~/.vim folder on multiple machines, and some of
+them may not have Python support.
+
+Default: 0 (Gundo is enabled as usual)
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+3.7 g:gundo_map_move_older, g:gundo_map_move_newer *gundo_map_move_older*
+ *gundo_map_move_newer*
+
+These options let you change the keys that navigate the undo graph. This is
+useful if you use a Dvorak keyboard and have changed your movement keys.
+
+Default: gundo_map_move_older = "j"
+ gundo_map_move_newer = "k"
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+3.8 g:gundo_close_on_revert *gundo_close_on_revert*
+
+Set this to 1 to automatically close the Gundo windows when reverting.
+
+Default: 0 (windows do not automatically close)
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+3.9 g:gundo_preview_statusline *gundo_preview_statusline*
+ g:gundo_tree_statusline *gundo_tree_statusline*
+
+Set these to a string to display it as the status line for each Gundo window.
+
+Default: unset (windows use the default statusline)
