The Krita VCS plugin (aka Krita VC)
A small Version Control panel that lives right inside Krita, so you can save a version, set work aside, or switch branches without ever leaving your canvas. It runs on the exact same engine and the exact same history as the desktop app. Save from either one, and the other sees it.

Saving happens automatically
Krita VCS builds every version from what's actually on disk, so opening the panel saves your open paintings for you first. A version can never quietly miss your last few minutes of work.
Saving still isn't the same as committing. Nothing becomes a version until you commit it.
