Description

Not sure if there could be two different branches of this question (I guess both they might work in a different way):

- Google Docs, Google Presentations or Google Sheets (at least) do store history of the file changes and permit to go back in time (user can select one old version and get back to it).
Would it be possible to download a non-last version of a Google sheet using PyDrive ?

- Google Drive permits to keep versions of user-uploaded files (i.e., a PDF or image file, which you can reupload modified and let Drive store multiple-versions or only the last one).
Would it be possible to download an archived version (not just the last one) using PyDrive ?
