[FeatureRequest]: #409

Closed vaderj closed 2 years ago

vaderj commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Ex. I'm always frustrated when... When you are updating your config files, it would be nice to be able to view prior versions.

Sometimes it seems that config changes take a few iterations to become effective

Describe the solution you propose.

Ex. It would be great if... It sure would be dandy if there was a way to sync the config with stuff like github/onedrive/google drive/(s)ftp(s) and it just maintained a date-based naming schema to avoid namespace collision

Describe alternatives you've considered

I guess an alternative is manually backing up changed files but I forget to do it all the time

Provide any additional context or information.

If this is out of scope for DWC, a workflow that I have found useful is to initialize an empty Git repository and sync files back and forth with https://github.com/adammhaile/rrgit/. It may even be possible to automate this with Git hooks.

You can then edit config files in a standard text editor and sync the changes.

There was a bug possibly affecting the correct saving of config.g in previous firmware versions but it should be fixed in v3.4.1. If there is another problem, please open up a new thread with more details.
