What did you expect to happen:

I expected the last action on the stack to be undone.

How to reproduce it:

I have no idea. I was reliably triggering the bug with the exact buffer I had but at some point it stopped doing it. Then it did it again.

Research direction

Start by trying to reproduce the behavior in VSCode 1.15.1 with VSCodeVim 0.10.0 on macOS 10.12.6, using the reported Normal-mode u action. The issue names no files, tests, or entry points; the work is done when a reproducible cause is identified and u undoes only the last action.
