Local history / versioning WITHOUT git

General
1

New to cursor, coming from PhpStorm.

I have a particular project that doesn’t use git of any kind. Jetbrains let me do versioning built-in to the app, and easily go back in time.

I cannot find where (or if) this exists in Cursor. I see ‘local history’ in settings, but for the life of me cannot figure out how to trigger it and view my past versions.

Hi @ctrlbrk! Since Cursor is a fork of VSCode, all features on VSCode are generally available on Cursor. That being said, VSCode extensions work perfectly in Cursor, so you could install VSCode extensions such as Checkpoints or Local History to do local versioning. Let me know if it doesn’t work or if you have any further questions :))
