Word to the wise.

Version control is amazing and I should use it more.

I was fiddling with my “ads” scripts for The Blue Alliance, attempting to clean up some code. I broke some code, and decided to roll back. The way I did this was by copying the version running on my web server over the local copy.

The local copy was newer with some substantial upgrades. Whoops.

Luckily I back things up to a hard disk and an FTP account. Still, it would have been incredibly intelligent to have committed those changes. Brilliant of me.
