<h4 class="subsection">17.2.2 Versioning Notes</h4>
<p>Since Org-roam notes are just plain text, it is trivial to track changes in your
notes database using version control systems such as <a href="https://git-scm.com/">Git</a>. Simply initialize
<code>org-roam-directory</code> as a Git repository, and commit your files at regular or
appropriate intervals. <a href="https://magit.vc/">Magit</a> is a great interface to Git within Emacs.
</p>
<p>In addition, it may be useful to observe how a particular note has evolved, by
looking at the file history. <a href="https://gitlab.com/pidu/git-timemachine">Git-timemachine</a> allows you to visit historic
versions of a tracked Org-roam note.
