What Is Versioning?

Versioning is a feature to hold updated files from the current point of time.
If an updated file is corrupted, or if you update the file incorrectly, you can replace the file with the earlier version you want.
The files to be kept in version control are set in generational increments. The number of generations to be set is set when each user registers a file.
For example, if you have two generations of versioning, you can keep the updated files from "current/current to one before/from the current time".
When a new file is updated, older files that are larger than the specified generation will be deleted.
