Local History

Local history of a file is maintained when you create or modify a file. Each time you edit and save a file,  a copy of it is saved. This allows you to at a future time compare your current file state to a previous state, or replace the file with a previous state. Each state in the local history is identified by the date and time the file was saved.  

Neither projects nor folders have local history.

Here is a look at what the local history of a Workbench file might look like:

Local history dialog

To view the local history of a file, choose Team > Compare with > Local History... from the popup menu. You can select different local states in the list, which are compared against the current file. You can also revert to the local history when you select a file and select the Team > Replace With > Local History... menu item.
