Is there anyway to freeze text in Xcode?


By that I mean, make it so it cant be deleted or moved or touched without a prompt.


I understand about GitHub, and backing up etc.


Why do I want to do this?


I make a lot of puzzle games, and when I am rapidly inputting the puzzle data I inevitably rewrite over previous puzzles.


It would be very helpful if I could just somehow highlight the existing puzzles and 'freeze' the text making me unable to touch it.

So you want to protect againts yourself ? Hard work.


Seriously, I often need to do the same when I start deep modification in a project.


What I do is close XCode, duplicate the full project folder in XCode and add "- Save on 2018.12.29 18h" to the name

I can then reopen and be safe in case of problem.


aka manual forking.
