- The site says rollbacks are saved as new versions, keeping earlier history intact.
Field notes
The documented setup starts by linking a folder to a project, then pushing an existing .env file with a commit-style message. Each environment has its own history; the site says comparisons can show changed keys while keeping values hidden until revealed. It also describes an audit log that omits secret values and scoped tokens for CI, alongside Docker self-hosting instructions.
