Need help to find the right process for revision control

Hi Alan. Welcome to the Opto forums.

Your not going to be too thrilled in the answers, but this is the best thread on the subject:

Not much has changed.
I can bump it again and see what the software guys are thinking, as I say in that thread, it does not come up very often.

Personally (20 years using PAC Control in a hospital with about 30 controllers) I just did my own manually via some sub-directories and copy/pasting the archives.
The hospital had me prove that I could do a ‘disaster recovery’ of the automation system in 30 minutes, no Internet was allowed and running my own git repo was not something I was all that interested in at the time. (Also, not being a programmer with any training, skill or appreciation for automatic version control did not help).
