Quartus Prime Lite 17.1 Code Revisions

[Altera_Forum]

Hi 

I'm looking for a way to have Quartus save and restore a history of code revisions, like say I have a project and I enter the code on the date 03/01/18, and then the next day I actually revise that code and want to save that on 03/02/18. But say I want to see the changes I made to the code at an earlier date and actually want to revert back to the old code at the earlier date, is there a way to have Quartus do this and save different versions of my code without starting a new project? Also, I program in VHDL, and it's nice to see color coded keywords, but why doesn't Quartus also do any code formatting such as spaces between code and auto-formatting of conditional codes, such that it's uniformly spaced?
