I'm thinking of something like microsoft office, where I only get an actual new version permanently recorded to my computer when I hit save, but if my computer crashes there is always an auto-recovered file that is fairly recent.
Right now I have Fusion set to auto-save every 15 mins to protect my work against crashes (which are still frequent enough to be of concern) but this results in hundreds of versions so when I do want to find an older version it takes quite while to pick my way past dozens of autosaves to find the version I'm actually interested in. I would like a distinction between the autosaves that are actually committed as new versions and an auto-recovered file that is accurate to the last 5-15 mins that does not exist as a permanent version.
I know there is technically an "auto-recover" file that appears, but in my experience that auto-recovered file was no more-recent than the auto-save frequency i had established in settings, which is why I increased the frequency from 1 hour to 15 mins.
