Why should I use version control if I'm working alone and already back up regularly?

Question

I\'m working on a project:

• Just me, no collaboration/source code sharing
• I\'m already backing my code up regularly, and I can use Dropbox to restore mista

Answer 1

Ever look at some piece of code and think, "Why did I do that?" Source control will answer that for you, via timestamps and comments on each commit.

And if nothing else, knowing how to use source control is a valuable skill for a developer.
