This is why you use source control

That’s awesome! I’m glad you’re here reinforcing the idea of source control! :slight_smile:

is a very important thing to do for anyone working on a project. I’d even say, if someone didn’t want to go through setting up source control through SVN, Peforce, Git, or any other option, just taking a moment and making a clone of your project occasionally is great as well!

For instance, I have a test project that I add to occasionally when helping users figure something out, when I’m testing community tutorials, or just wanting to set something up for my own test purposes. With project I keep a text file that is my change log. I’ll add to that when I do any updates. Before I add to the project I’ll make a clone of it in case I do anything stupid or break something. It has happened a couple of times and I’ve been thankful to have a back up. Granted I don’t have a significant project here but I don’t want to lose anything either!

I don’t do memes often but is how I feel when I’ve lost my projects in the past :slight_smile:
