Configuration

File Recovery settings

Time Machine reads snapshots from the File Recovery core plugin. To configure it, go to Settings -> Core plugins -> File Recovery and adjust:

Setting	Description	Default
Snapshot interval	How often File Recovery saves a snapshot	2 minutes
History length	How long snapshots are kept before being deleted	7 days
Maximum file size	Files larger than this are not snapshotted	2 MB

Plugin settings

Time Machine has the following settings, accessible via Settings -> Community plugins -> Time Machine:

Git integration

Setting	Description	Default
Enable git integration	Show git commits as snapshots on the timeline (desktop only)	On
Maximum git commits	Maximum number of git commits to fetch per file (slider, 1-200)	50

Note: Git integration only works on the desktop app. On mobile, these settings have no effect and no git operations are attempted.

When enabled, Time Machine automatically detects whether the vault is inside a git repository and, for each file, fetches its commit history. The git commits are merged with File Recovery snapshots into a single chronological timeline.

The plugin never creates commits, pushes, pulls, or modifies the git repository in any way. It is strictly read-only.
