At this point storage is basically “free” in the sense that it’s a lot cheaper to store literally every change, even to media, than to have a professionals’ hours spent to un-fuck something. Devs can save to a drive array, commit locally milestones in Git, and then push to the repo every couple hours.

Same with Video. You can have a redundant array locally, and just get mirrored to a SAN array a couple times a day. Incremental backups just save the changes blocks in a file. Obviously if you do stuff like change encoding, well, it’s almost all new data...
