@minikin - does this just remove the Sketch files or does it delete the entire DocumentRevisions-V100 folder? I can’t seem to access revisions of any of my Pages and Keynote docs anymore.

@minikin @fpocha It looks like it deletes every revision of every file on your computer. NOT just sketch. WTF... And now it looks like i can't create revisions going forward.

@minikin @stephenmarklevi Yes it's done that for me as well. I had to do a time machine restore to get my Keynote and Pages revisions back. @rrhoover please pull this deceiving piece of software - it doesn't clear caches, it DELETES all revisions and turns them off. Devs - make it clear what exactly you're doing to our data before you delete it irrevocably. This is incredibly irresponsible software.

@stephenmarklevi you can re-enable revisions by pasting this command in Terminal: defaults write -app sketch ApplePersistence -bool yes

@fpocha I'm sorry to hear that. Had you read README https://github.com/yo-op/sketchc... ?

@minikin no I didn’t, why would I? it’s not on your website, and your app doesn’t warn me before it tells me it will delete a “Sketch Cache” which is NOT what it did. Sketch stores it’s cache files in ~/Library/Caches like every other app - you’re actually deleting it’s revision files. NOT the same thing by any means. I see you are well-intentioned but please rename your app to “Apple Revision Disabler” and give a proper warning of what it will do to a user’s files and revisions.

@jmsuth @oparenko I've been using sketch cache cleaner, and I must say it's speeding up my sketch. But the only issue i'm getting is it's even removing my local/global sketch color swatches :( is there a way to retain them?

This application is misleading - it doesn’t clear the Sketch cache, but deletes all pervious versions of your file - so you lose all possibility of recovering them! Please warn users about this - I now have lost all previous versions of my designs by using this.

@fpocha Why do you need to keep previous versions? I keep EVERYTHING on one doc. ↪ duplicate artboard + work to the right ↩
