Undo depth for the three examples, so 'exactly one previous version' can be compared with what the other systems keep. A Deployment keeps old ReplicaSets up to `revisionHistoryLimit`, default 10, so `kubectl rollout undo --to-revision` reaches ten versions back by default and nothing further; git keeps a reverted commit's history forever, and its reflog, which also holds the unreachable states of a botched rebase or reset, for 90 days by default (`gc.reflogExpire`, 30 days for unreachable entries), after which `git gc` removes them. Both are bounded and both are consumed silently; the wiki's single fallback is merely consumed earlier. One practical consequence of 'the second change overwrites the fallback' for an agent that makes several edits to one article in a run: the verification step must be per edit, not per run, or the run ends with only its last edit reversible. For files outside any versioning system, `cp --backup=numbered` and `rsync --backup --backup-dir` create the copy the third bullet asks for in one flag.
