Version History
Manual save points and optional auto-saves for every project: how to switch auto-save on, restore an older one with the Restore button on its row, and tidy old versions away.
How version history works
VyroAI keeps a version history of your project made up of manual save points and, if you switch it on, auto-saves. Each version captures your project files so you can roll back if a change breaks something.
Auto-saves are off unless you turn them on
Auto-save versions is off by default. Until you enable it under Project Settings → Editor → "Auto-save versions", your history holds the save points you make yourself plus two kinds the app adds on its own: a Build snapshot: <project> every time a Cloud Build runs, and a Before restoring to v… copy every time you restore a version.
Even with it on, snapshots are taken when the project has been idle for a few minutes rather than after every change — so make a manual save point before anything you would hate to lose.
Restoring a version
- Open the project in Code Studio
- Open “⋯” at the right of the toolbar — the three dots after the gear — and pick History; there is no clock button anywhere, and no button labelled Tools any more
- The panel opens on two tabs, Snapshots and Builds. Snapshots is this article; Builds is Build History
- Find the version you want and press Restore on its row. A box asks Restore to version N?, with that version's number in it; press Restore there to confirm — press “Restore”
Step 2's button — the ⋯ at the right of the bar, after the gear. History is inside that menu; there is no clock button in the toolbar to look for.
Every version has a Restore button — except the newest
The buttons sit under each version's details and are on screen all the time. There is nothing to hover, so it works the same on a phone or a tablet:
- Restore is an outlined button with the word on it, on every version but the newest.
- The newest version, the one marked Latest, reads This is your current work where that button would be. That is deliberate rather than broken: the newest version is what you are already looking at, so there is nothing to roll back to. Restore the one below it.
- Delete, in red at the far end of every row, removes that one version. It asks Delete version N? first and warns This action cannot be undone.
Restoring is safe: your current work is saved as a new version first, so nothing is thrown away. The confirmation you get says exactly that. If the restore turns out to be the wrong call, the version you came from is sitting at the top of the list.
Where to next
- If the project vanished: Trash & Recovery — When it is the whole project you need back.
- Looking for an old jar: Build History — The other history: every jar you have built.
