WIP backups / file versioning for : all disk writes are (optionally) logged and earlier versions can be fetched by sticking a timestamp on the end:

> cat foo.txt@-30
-- shows foo.txt as it was stored on disk 30 seconds ago

@zep disabled by mount points? (eg not needed when saved on host OS)

@fsouchu There's no way to filter what is archived (yet), but it can be turned off at least. Also, it doesn't proactively search for changes that were made in external editors.

@ramblingsteve @zep ...until u press delete 😜

I always have my root P8/Ptron folders sync'd (currently with Filen, prev Dropbox) just in case - plus coz I hop between two computers, so can continue making stuff.

But the fact Zep's giving us a built-in, OFFLINE solution, is pretty awesome! 🤓👌
