Or after long work, you decide your last hour has been full of errors and it would be better to go back in time. If the software is designed to save a version history of the file, it might save our day on both cases.
Sure, but again, if you are prone to "last hour deletions" or if your work is valuable to you in any other respect, simply do a "quarter-hourly"-backup and the worst that can happen is that you loose 15min of your valuable time.
Another option could be subversion, if version-management really matters.
I'm talking of a versioning method handled directly and transparently by the operating system. It is not a backup system, you still need them. I know we can use dozens of methods to use instead, but that is not what I'm talking about, and none can compare with a versioning filesystem. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
