One of the design intentions for Grace is to make version control more ambient, more something that just happens in the background, so you get the benefits of file-level undo and diffs and change tracking without having to do anything, until you're ready to run `grace commit` and `grace promote`.
I'm like you: for small personal projects I either don't bother with source control, or I update it rarely. I'm the first beneficiary of the ambient approach that Grace has; it's really nice to just have all of my previous versions automatically uploaded and tracked, and then deleted a few days later if they're not pointed to by some other reference like a commit or promotion.
