Why is it so hard to see code from 5 minutes ago?
Oh hey, I've built this! My version would watch code files and snapshot a diff every few seconds. It took a little work to tweak the constants to keep the watching performant, but it was super neat being able to replay code. The main problem I faced was that changes often occur in different places in the file, so the history replaying jumps around a lot. With some proper editor integration, I could see it being pretty useful.
My version is super incomplete because I kind of lost steam when I couldn't figure out a really great reason why someone should use this, but hey, maybe it's worth another try: https://github.com/nicholaslyang/codemkin

Piece of mind for a reddit noob.
Using a plugin like undotree (or Gundo, or Mundo) to visualize the edit history is by far the most practical solution to OP's problem, and I'm shocked you're the only person to suggest it.

For those that use vim, gundo.vim visualizes the "undo-tree" and allows you to preview / jump to any revision: https://github.com/sjl/gundo.vim
