--- Comment #3 from Kenneth Evans <k...@kenevans.net> ---
What a surprise! Who would ever think incremental backup was backing up with
some state from the past.  I don't know of anything else that works that way,
and it certainly isn't what I want or thought I was getting.  I want to save a
snapshot of my work and continue working on the same file.

I can only speak for myself, but it's really hard for me to see why anyone
would want it to work as it does.

And there is no option do do what I want, save a snapshot and continue working
on the same file.

The documentation says:

Save incremental version
Save as a new version of the same file with a number attached.

Save incremental Backup
Make a backup file without leaving the working file.

If you insist on the incremental backup not being a backup of your current
work, then please make it clear in the documentation what it is doing.

Based on past experience and your reaction here, I don't expect you will fix
it, but it really is a gotcha and SHOULD be fixed.

(This is the same issue as #404782.)
