File Versioning

A system that automatically tracks and stores every change made to a file, allowing users to view, compare, and restore previous iterations.

🎯The Problem

Users often accidentally overwrite important files or need to revert to a state before a mistake was made, but local copies are unreliable.

💡The Solution

An integrated file system feature that tracks version history, clearly labeling who made what change and when, with an easy rollback button.
