Abstract: Quantum version control (QVC) services are disclosed that manage, track, and archives updates to the contents of a quantum file (QF). The QVC service tracks versions of a QF as updates are made to the QF, assigns a unique identifier to each version of the QF, and generates a version history for the QF.

The superposition of the quantum states of the set of qubits simultaneously encodes each version of the version history.
