Is it possible to show "previous versions" or releases for a single blog post?

Hi everyone,

I've been using Quarto for my blog. I update my posts frequently as I learn new things, and I'd like readers to see that history, basically a "this post has been updated" indicator or a way to view previous versions.

I know GitHub tracks commits, but is there a way to surface that on the actual page? Something like a "View previous version" link or archived HTML?

I've looked through the docs but haven't found anything. If this isn't built-in or I'm approaching this wrong, let me know.

Thanks!

You can use date-modified to show the date at which the document was modified in addition to the publication date date).

If you want to show "previous versions", you have to render them somehow.
Have a Lua filter or pre-render that retrieves the "versions" do something with it that can be rendered by Quarto.
For short, it's possible, but you have to create the workflow for this.
