"versioning" in a CMS

Recommended Posts

I'm building a modest CMS.  In it, i want the ability to "roll" back to previous versions of pages when making updates.  I'm unclear as to how i might structure the DB tables to make this efficient.  My first thought was to jsut do an insert anytime a page is "updated".  However, this creates a new id so i'm not sure how i'll roll back if I don't then have a unique identifier.  Also, since every single update would insert a new record, even with proper indexing i'm probably going to create performance issues right?  Any suggestions?
