When to compare revisions?

Version control system helps you manage changes to topics over time. It records every modification made. It’s especially helpful when different people work on the same topic because you can keep track of all modification made. In case of any problems, you can easily revert a topic to a previous state while comparing and analyzing revisions for mistakes.
