Nothing special really, I just make a backup before every change nowadays, along with some half-assed documentation. And then shove all the backups into a 'backup' folder when it becomes to crowded with backups lol.

How my ROM/hack is now sadly, using the different programs they like to shift around data/re-compress data differently, messing up something or another for another editor and/or work I've done, so I often 'corrupt' some aspect of my ROM and need to do an IPS report between the latest working backup and my current ROM and manually edit just the bytes I need, so the data shift doesn't occur. It's quite a headache obviously but I've gotten it down to a science basically.

Lots and lots of backups though all the time for sure, it's nice to be able to narrow down any issues if need be between the latest working and broken versions that are very close together in terms of date to quickly narrow down the issue and learn exactly what date and time it was that the error(s) happened, which usually jogs my memory and prevents me from f**k**g up the same thing in the future lol.


We are born, live, die and then do the same thing over again.
