Guide

To save a of a branched development file:

  1. Go to Branches -> Versions

  2. Select the desired file from the list

  3. Select the top Active File line in the version list.

  4. In the right sidebar, enter a version description and select Full Backup or Clone

  5. When prompted, enter a .

Versions are backups of the development file. They can be either clones or full backups and the default choice can be specified in Project Settings. For large file sizes (> 100MB), we recommend using Clone as default. Choosing Full Backup might result in bad performance on your development server.

Version Numbers

For more advanced use cases, like when you're dealing with pre-release versions, Devin also supports version numbers that include letters, such as 2.10.3-alpha and 2.10.3-beta8.

Devin supports a wide variety of versioning conventions, but we recommend using a standard convention like or similar that uses a format that looks like MAJOR.MINOR or MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
