New Folders are private.

Dunno if Plastic plays nice for Unity. Might just be a config thing? I know for one that it can’t lock folders and still function.

Personally I’m a git user: proper industrial-grade source control in order to guard and protect my hard-earned work.

I use git (completely outside of Unity) because it is free and there are tons of tutorials out there to help you set it up as well as free places to host your repo (BitBucket, Github, Gitlab, etc.).

It is only simple economics that you must expend as much effort into backing it up as you feel the work is worth in the first place.
