Using the History feature

You can view previous versions of your project using the History feature.

Accessing the History and Labelled Versions

Click on the History tab above the preview panel. In the All history panel, you can click on the history "slice" you need, and Download a project at this version if you need to retrieve a previous version. You can also then click the Label this version button (visible in Single version view) to give a label to a specific "slice", so that you can find it easily later.

Labelled versions can be accessed quickly via the History > Labels panel.

To exit the History mode and return to normal editing mode, just click on History again.

Note that when you copy a project, the history of that new project starts completely afresh—it's independent of the previous editing history of the original project.

Compare View

If you click on the blue Compare to another version button in the top bar of the History view, this will bring up another view mode where you can drag some handles to choose the beginning and end point for a diff between any two history "slices" or labels. Then that view will update to highlight any changed files in the file list, and also highlight changes, colored by collaborator, in the source code for each changed file.

Recovering Deleted Files

You can recover accidentally deleted files from the History view too.

• In History view, click Compare to another version, and drag the handles to compare two versions before and after the file was deleted.
• Select the deleted file from the list of files on the left hand side (it will be crossed out).
• Click on the Restore this deleted file option that appears on top.
