Windows File Explorer will be more powerful with version control and 7z

Microsoft has announced that it will be adding native version control to File Explorer, allowing users to sync their programming projects directly to the app. This integration with systems like Git will enable users to see new changes and comments within File Explorer. Additionally, Microsoft is introducing the ability to natively compress files to 7-zip and TAR, moving away from the “antiquated” ZIP compression. This new feature may also benefit non-programmers by allowing them to keep the latest copies of a project synced to their hard drive. This development is expected to make managing projects more convenient for users.
