Hello to all,
I was wondering if one could use ".txt" suffix instead of ".ino" because then google drive (synced to my sketchbook) would keep the versions history
Thanks
The Arduino IDE does not recognize .txt files.
You might want to check whether Google Drive can't work with the .ino files.
Better yet, use Git for the best version control.
I was wrong! google drive does keep old versions of .ino files up to the earlier of (100 versions, 30 days)
Most of the world uses one of the multitude of version control application for this task. I currently use 'subversion' but have used many others in the past. There is usually a significant learning curve associated with your first ever use of a version control system but once you have mastered the general concepts moving from one to another is not that difficult.
