[Bf-committers] More than 10 randoms crashes in 8 hours; how to fill bugs reports?

[Stephen Swaney]

Bugs *can* be hard to find.  You do not need to debug it yourself,
but if you can file a bug report with a simple, repeatable
crash that can help.  Including a *small* .blend is a plus.

A Workaround:

Back in olden times, when memory actually cost money, Blender used the
file system for an undo stack.  That is why there are nice hotkeys for
Save and Reload and why the process of reading and writing a .blend
file is quick.  When you save, Blender automagically creates filenames
with an incremented version number.

The biggest drawback to this system is it requires the user
to think.
