Can anyone with more detailed Filehistory and Calibre knowledge give me some advice?

I was under the impression that File History only backed up changed files so it would make sense that if you were editing metadata, cover images, etc. you would not get the ebook itself unless you used ModifyEpub or Polish to embed the metadata into the ebook file.
Check incremental backup vs. full backup for the different backup strategies.
As for newish? I seem to remember seeing File History in Windows 8.
