Thought the same, copy-pasting valuable blocks as a reference into a comment worked fine. If it exceeds a one block rewrite, make small dirty commits to keep track of things.

On one hand it's nice that there are tools to support devs who get lost in their undo-redo history, on the other I feel like it's a matter of good habits to not even have this problem.

of course changing habits is hard, so maybe tooling is justified in this case. I'm just happy I don't have nother "history" type mental model to deal with.
