now for Linux also!
(Looking for the windows version?)

History Viewer is a PB IDE-Tool, that is working like a personal version controling system.
It is also useful as a kind of backup-system, cause you can simply restore almost any older Version of a source code and it doesn’t need much space.

Whenever you release a product, you should freeze the sources and sent them to the “released projects”.

It works like this:
Whenever you open a sourcecode it will look in its history, if this file allready is there.
If it isn’t it will create a copy of the whole file.
Whenever you close your IDE the changes to the previous version will be saved.

Feature List

• – load/restore any older code-version
• – delete single versions
• – ignore single sources and/or complete folders

• – update all historys with one click
• – add binaries to released projects
• – see differences between versions
• – automatic backups
• – create own templates
• – use sqlite (for private history) or decentralized postgresql (on a server e.g.)
• – data compressed (and incremental)
• – freeze versions, when released
• – starting new branches
• – …
