: Re: Do You Use Any Version Controlling Software/Methods As Writers? As writers, do you use any version controlling software to track and monitor what you write? For example, if you accidentally deleted

I am a programmer in real life, so using a version control software was a no-brainer for me. I write stuff in plain text, with each chapters in a separate text file.

I use Subversion on them, with TortoiseSVN on Windows, and also use a Dropbox for backing up my repository.

This way I have my changes versioned, I can comment the changes I commit, and if my hard drive decides to die, I can be back really quick.
