Thus far I've been writing code and I haven't seen a way to revert to a prior state. I'm getting anxious not knowing if my code base will be safe from any unforseen issues. I want to back up all I've written to my Github account but I can't even find a branch id I can refer to to do the cloning and no UI indicating that possibility. How do I back up my code without having to manually copy/paste?

As far as I know, there's no way. My personal workflow is as follows: I write my code locally in Visual Studio and have a repository for it there. I then send files to the QC terminal via the VS plugin. I'm not sure there's a way you can reverse this and pull files out of the QC terminal.
Happy to be corrected though!

Do you know if there's a plugin for VS Code or do I have to install the full VS?
Douglas Stridsberg
To my knowledge there is no plugin for VS Code. Not sure if you can use the VS plugin in VS Code - if you can't then you'll have to either write your own or simply install the full VS.

We're working on a dropbox-icon like application which will upload all projects data. Essentially the plugins are just doing this - so we're trying to make an IDE agnostic way to do that request.

There is a command line utility that I used in the past to keep QC in sync with local developments.Â
