[TxMt] Re: Auto Save and Versions

[Rolf Langenhuijzen]

IMO I don't think we need Apple to (indeed) help me with version control
which is indeed what you actually want to use. I use git (with GitHub)
and I'm very happy with it, when you get the hang of it it's pretty easy
to use and there's a GUI as well if you want for easy merging branches
etc. I love Mac but I think the existing tools for version control are
perfect. 

Cheers, Rolf
