(elisp)Backups and Auto-Saving


Backups and Auto-Saving
***********************

   Backup files and auto-save files are two methods by which Emacs tries
to protect the user from the consequences of crashes or of the user's
own errors.  Auto-saving preserves the text from earlier in the current
editing session; backup files preserve file contents prior to the
current session.

Backup Files: How backup files are made; how their names are chosen.
Auto-Saving: How auto-save files are made; how their names are chosen.
Reverting: `revert-buffer', and how to customize what it does.
