Emacs noob here. How do I get redo functionality in evil mode? When I hit C-r, I see "customize 'evil-undo-system' for redo functionality", but I have no Idea what that means or how to do it. I assume there's some line I should add in my .emacs file?
There are packages that were written to add an explicit redo command, such as Undo Fu (https://gitlab.com/ideasman42/emacs-undo-fu) and Undo Tree (https://www.dr-qubit.org/undo-tree.html). Again, these packages are not needed in Emacs 28. That variable you found tells Evil which feature/package you want to use for an explicit redo command.

undo-tree git repository is not available anymore?
The only other place I could find the most recent git repo is on emacsmirror.

Vundo is great! (visual undo-tree for emacs-28)
Try undo-fu, it's a thin wrapper on emacs built-in undo/redo but doesn't have this limitation.

undo-hl: highlight to-be-deleted text before undo operation happens
Try undo-fu it was written to address exactly this problem.

Org Mode: Are you ever concerned that you might make some major editing mistake and lose some data?
Emacs has a good built-in undo function. And that one can be beefed up further with undo-tree --- which I used for some years --- or undo-fo --- which I use now ---.

The 6 Emacs Settings Every User Should Consider
I switched back from undo-tree to undo-fu, which re-uses the emacs undo-system instead of replacing it and makes it more intuitive to use while still preserving the full undo history. I sometimes miss the nice visualizations such as the tree and I didn't even know (or remember) the diff, but in 99% of cases I just need simple undo and most of the time I have git anyway to save intermediate states of my files.
