Some times I wonder what was changed in the current file. The :changes command lists all changes to the file. Type g; to step back to the position of previous changes in the changelist. Type g, to step to the position of the next change.

And it works even after closing the file! I just used your tip to see what I changed in my todo list during the last days.
