<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Hi Sir<br><br></div>Sorry I was not aware of this feature but yes, its quite hidden. Yes, that can be one way of doing it. I was just testing the console and found it is logging all of the queries that is taking place. So another way of implementing version control is having one base database as static and logging all of the queries that is taking place. This can even be done using a text file and when user wishes to return back to some version we can just execute the queries that have taken place between the static database and the version which user demands. This way memory will also be saved and eliminate requirement of saving a snapshot of databases. Agreed it will take a little more time to recover but there are more positives than negatives. I hope this is feasible.<br><br>What I am trying to propose is bringing all features as commands in console and not restricting it to just SQL queries. Console is one of the best introductions to phpMyAdmin and can be taken to greater potential.<br><br></div>Please let me know if this can be worked and can be accepted as a GSoC project and also the flaws.<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><font color="#666666">Regards,<br>Manraj Singh Grover</font><div><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><font color="#666666">Secretary, IEEE NSIT</font></span></div><div><a href="http://in.linkedin.com/in/manrajsinghgrover/" style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)" target="_blank">Connect on LinkedIN</a></div><div><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><font color="#666666">Ph. +91-9811040427</font></span></div></div></div></div>

</span>Where do you plan to keep the backup? In the database itself, I guess?<br>
If so, how will this scale?<br>
<br>
And do you plan an automatic save?<br>
<br>
Regarding this feature, are you aware that phpMyAdmin already has a<br>
tracking mechanism?<br>
