The history feature in VSCode have saved me multiple times. To me, 200MB per workspace is worth it.

Are you not using Git/any SCM or what?

They don't do anything automatically. VSCodes feature does keep every saved state of every file

Of course not. But why would I need "every saved state of every file"? The number of times that would have saved me would be zero, because I never ended up in a case where that would have saved me. Things I need saved are saved as stashes/things put in git, and the rest are things I don't need saved.

What scenarios are there where things like this would have saved me somehow?
