Neat solution from Romain Vialard to retrieve a previous version of your Apps Script code. There is an [open feature request**](https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/36753147) to have this as a built-in feature of Apps Script (as noted by Romain recovering a previous script version is also possible using clasp using [pull and an optional version number**](https://github.com/google/clasp#pull)).
