Description gliesian 2010-01-24 21:11:10 UTC 
In Tools | Options, Miscellaneous, Versioning tab, there is the 'mandatory' ability to select when local files will be purged:

Local History: Keep Local History Files for [value] days.

The user should be able to disable this feature with a "Save all local history files" option.

Also, if you enter 99999999999999999999999999, the warning is "Must be a number".   99999999999999999999999999 is a number.

Thanks.

two different problem:

1.) need option to keep files in LH forever -> enhancement
2.) too big numbers ( > 2^32) in "Keep LH Files for ..." cause an "Must be a
number" error. -> filed a new issue #179833  to over this
