Copia has released the ability to easily "Restore from any Commit", within the Desktop App. 

This means that if you make a change that you later regret, you can easily restore a prior commit. To use this feature, simply navigate to the "History" tab for the relevant commit. From there, you can right-click on the commit that you want to restore, and click the "Restore from Commit" button. 

For more information, see our documentation!

We hope that this new feature will make Copia even more useful for our users. As always, if you have any questions or feedback, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at contact@copia.io.

We are happy to announce formal support for Rockwell RSLogix 5000 v16-20!  As a result, Copia can provide better support for earlier versions of Rockwell software/firmware, by utilizing the RSLogix 5000 software (versus the later Studio 5000 Logix Designer) for Copia advanced features supporting their projects (such as display and differences).

This includes full support of displaying the project and differences, as well as, Rung Commenting, and Merge support*.
