Is there any way to change the naming convention on the backup file and or just disable the back up as well?
I want to remove the Spaces and the () characters from the naming, spaces used in file names are really annoying when dealing with files inside a shell.
I did try to just rename the file but it just creates a new file with the old name.
Thanks

Hi,
To disable auto-backups, open the Dialogue Editor window. On the Database page, set Editor Settings > Auto Backup Frequency to zero. There's currently no way to change the filename that's used, but you can change the folder in which it's written.

Thanks, yeah truing it off works and Ill just do that.
Is there any benefit or need for the backup if using git as it will already be revisioned?
I am guessing not but just want to make sure I am not missing something.

That's fine. It's just a backup, like what MS Word creates when you're editing a Word doc. If you're using git and committing frequently, you don't need it.
