I stopped using Increment and Save the minute I bought the qp_VersionSnaphot script from aescripts. 


This should be built in to AE, in mu opinion. It's a much cleaner way to implement project incrementing. I can just work in the same projectfile all the time, and incremented backups get saved to a timestamped snapshots subfolder, without defiling my main aep project folder.

It's so awesome. Best $30 I've spent all year.

One way around it is not to use it.  Ae has a nifty Increment and Save, which I like a lot better.  I invoke that at every significant milestone, and end up with a bunch of versions anyway, but when I do need to go back in time, the state I return to has more significance.

Anyway, just a suggestion.  Some people like auto-save.

I wish Increment and Save was in Pr.  I'll make a feature request.
