Trash and checkpoints in VS Code

The Trash

Deleting a file or folder in a kodeo:// window (or pushing a deletion from a linked folder, or deleting in the browser) puts it in the project's trash for 7 days. In VS Code it's Project Tools → Trash in the KODEO side bar (it loads when you open it):

• each entry shows what was deleted, where, by whom, how long ago, and when it goes for good;
• Restore brings it back — for everyone in the project, where it was;
• Delete Forever removes one entry now; Empty Trash removes them all (both ask first and can't be undone).

The view updates by itself when a teammate deletes or restores something. Viewers can look but not restore.

Checkpoints

A checkpoint is a saved copy of one file's text, shared with the web editor.

• KODEO: Create Checkpoint saves the file you have open (with an optional name).
• Project Tools → Checkpoints lists the open file's checkpoints (yours, teammates' and the automatic ones). Click one to compare it with the file now — the checkpoint on the left, the file on the right — then restore it from there or with the restore button on the row. KODEO: Checkpoints… does the same from the Command Palette.
• Restoring changes the file for everyone in the room. The current text is saved as a checkpoint first, so a restore can itself be undone.

For older history, use Git: KODEO Git: File History shows every commit that changed the file, and right-clicking one lets you restore that version.
