While we don't (and probably won't) have a built-in rollback
capability, it is possible to keep multiple versions of any uploaded
files.  Just set in local/config.php:

    $EnableUploadVersions = 1;

Interestingly, this is mentioned on 
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/UploadVariables but not in
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/UploadsAdmin (we should probably
fix this).
