System Information
Operating system: Windows 10
Graphics card: nvidia gtx 780

Blender Version
tested in 2.8.3 / 2.8.2 broken in both

Short description of error

when i remove a vertex group, all of the vertices of later groups are shifted to the next group in the list.

Also, you cannot undo removing a vertex group.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
create a mesh with multiple vertex groups that have vertexes
enter edit mode
go to vertex groups
click on the top one, then hit the "-" button

DISASTER!!!! (ok, it's not that bad, but it's annoying)

I can't or don't understand how to reproduce the problem.

Also, to properly track issues we need them to be reported separately.
The undo problem has already been reported here #71980

Here the file I tried:
tmp.blend

OK, I see the issue now, it occurs when you remove the vertex group, then try and undo that operation. This is kind of described in the other ticket.

Steps to recreated (NEW):

  1. have a model with multiple populated vertex groups (a, b, c)
  2. enter edit mode
  3. select the top vertex group (a)
  4. hit the '-' button to remove the vertex group
  5. undo (control-z)

issues this creates:

  1. vertex group not recreated. (described in other issue)
  2. all of the vertexes that previously belonged to a are reassigned to b, b to c, etc - and since undoing got you into this mess, you will have to revert your file and redo your work.

In this case, if you do not mind, I will merge the reports.
