I love FlashDevelop! Just had an idea that could make it even better: the ability to add "milestones" to your project. Usually before I start experimenting with something, I make a backup of all my files so if something goes wrong or i change my mind, i can easily revert/undo everything. Tried to look for a plugin, but couldn't find any, probably it doesn't exist.
Is it just me or this would be really handy? Ideas?

Re: Milestones?
Why not just use version control?
Git branches are pretty much designed for this use case.
I do use version control, but we usually work in a group and it's never a good idea to update the repository with changes that are not ready to use. Hence i thought it could be handy to have this feature inside FlashDevelop

Re: Milestones?
If this workflow becomes a problem, consider using distributed version control with local branches. Just like ricick recommended, you could use Git.
This is not an IDE-type functionality.

Re: Milestones?
I'm not really familiar with local branches, so i'm going to check them out. Probably it's the solution i'm looking for Thanks for the recommendation!
