Hello, after syncing files from my win10 & Linux PCs to my Google Drive (entire folders) I noticed that the uploaded file works OK, but the FILE VERSION that Google Drive keeps is LOST!!!

I consider this a minor nuisance by itself, yet the fact that it is not documented anywhere makes it extremely dangerous!!!

Imagine someone relying on this versioning for last updates...

Is there an option to keep the file versioning? Can something be done?

Since FFS is deleting and uploading the new copy, you can't keep Google Drive revision history
