Scene History Manager

🔹 The Problem: Traditional Version Control Falls Short

Version Control Systems (VCS) like Git and Plastic SCM are great for managing scripts and assets—but when it comes to Unity scenes, they fall apart. Here’s why:

Scenes are not diff-friendly – A .unity file is a complex serialized format, making changes impossible to track meaningfully in Git.

Merge conflicts are a nightmare – If two people modify a scene, merging often leads to broken prefabs, missing objects, or straight-up corruption.

No easy way to roll back – Traditional VCS workflows require committing, branching, and resolving conflicts manually, cumbersome for artists and designers.

Saving overwrites work – If a scene is changed and saved unintentionally, there’s no quick way to revert, unless you want to Control Z your way through the changes, which does not work once the scene is closed.

The Solution: A Purpose-Built Scene History Manager

Scene History Manager provides a simple backup system for Unity scenes, so you can quickly snapshot, restore, and manage scene versions without messing with complex VCS workflows.

🔍 Who is This For?

• Solo Developers & Small Teams who need scene backups but don’t want the overhead of full VCS workflows.
• Artists & Designers who frequently tweak scenes but don’t want to touch Git or worry about merge conflicts.
• Developers Working with Procedural Scenes where tracking incremental changes is crucial.
• Anyone Tired of Losing Work due to accidental saves, Unity crashes, or corrupted scene files.

💾 How It Works

1️⃣ Snapshot a Scene – Saves a versioned backup with a timestamp.

2️⃣ Continue Working – The tool runs in the background without interfering.

3️⃣ Restore Anytime – Instantly load a previous version with a single click.

Stop wrestling with broken merges and lost scene changes. Scene History Manager brings seamless versioning to Unity—without the pain of traditional VCS.
