[O] For Org, numbered backups or version control? Which settings? |

Hi. My ~/org folder, with its sub directories, has a total of 13 .org
files. Five of them are agenda files. I set up numbered backup, with
the backups going to a separate directory: ~/auto-backups. For the
most important org files, I raised the number of numbered backups
kept. For example, my biggest org file has the following local
variables:
- Local variables:
- auto-save-interval: 150
- version-control: t
- kept-new-versions: 80
- End:
I sincronize both ~/org and ~/auto-backups to a cloud syncing service.
~/auto-backups now is 97MiB, about 2% of my 5.5GiB cloud quota.
Do you recommend keeping my current setup? Or should I adopt some
version control system to have better history (right now I save only
the latest 80 versions, and Emacs saves a new backup only on the Emacs
session's first save)?
