Snapshots (version control)
Snapshots are part of an old version control system I have been using since early 2019 in my projects. A snapshot is an archived version of a page for after edits are done for the day, or a specified time period. Snapshot files do not carry their own extensions, it normally involves snapshot# before the file extension in the file path. The use of the word snapshot was inspired by VirtualBox Virtual Machine snapshots
Different file types use different aliases. Snapshot files are normally always HTML files. Everything else uses a different system for archival (which is V# (as in V1) at the end of the file)
Snapshot files are not to be modified after they are created. They are an archival of the work from a day, and not a continuing project.
In the bottom of HTML documents, a snapshot section is normally included. This snapshot section links to all the snapshots of a page, and (in later documents) shows the date of the snapshot in the snapshot section.
This article on Version Control is a stub. You can help by expanding it!
