Checkpoints: Compare and Restore

Whenever Cline uses a tool, the extension takes a snapshot of the workspace so you can easily restore back to that point. When you hover over messages, you’ll notice two new buttons:

• Compare lets you see a diff overview between the snapshot and the current state of your workspace
• Restore lets you choose one of three options. While you’ll mostly use the ‘Restore Task and Workspace’ option, ‘Restore Task Only’ can be useful for when you need to course correct or undo a problematic tool use, and ‘Restore Workspace Only’ can be useful to checkout different versions of your code without losing Cline’s work.

See new changes

There is now a ‘See new changes’ button when Cline completes a task, giving you an overview of all the changes made to your workspace (since the last 'Task Completed'). This keeps you in the loop with Auto-approve enabled, saving you the trouble of reviewing a task’s message history.

Task Size

Under the hood, the extension uses git to efficiently track changes, which uses additional disk space when starting new tasks in Cline. Keep track of how much space a task takes with the new delete button, allowing you to manage disk usage easily.
