Mesh Snapshots — Version Control for Your Meshes inside Blender
Push your creativity, not your undo stack. Mesh Snapshots lets you capture the entire state of a mesh—geometry, modifier stack and object transforms—with a single click. Jump back to any milestone instantly, experiment fearlessly, and keep your scene history tidy without bloated .blend files.
