Journaling or storing incremental backups (perhaps offline?) of validated/verified checkpoints may address this, although it sounds like something you wouldn't be happy with since it's not a 'built-in' feature but an additional backup & maintenance process that a system administrator would need to implement.

I guess you're asking whether there exists a distributed fault-tolerant with a form of version control (similar to git/cvs/perforce) as part of the native feature set.
