sounds like you have a stray `:undo` somewhere in the scripts that get sourced during startup or in an autocommand. You can see which scripts get sourced with `:scriptnames`. If this strange behavior only happens with python files, I'd first look at file type plugins. Maybe the contain a leftover `u` in a line, which would be interpreted as an abbreviation of `undo`. With the `undofile` option set this would immediately undo your last change from the last edit session upon loading the python file. If other file types show the same behavior you will have to check more of the sourced files. Also an autocommand might include a stray `u` or `undo`. You might want to check the ones that get executed on loading files into a buffer, like those whose event names start with "BufRead" or "FileRead" and especially the "FileType" event.
