The original pitch was "throw away your usb drive", I don't think file history came about until after 2010, but I'm not too sure and modern Google makes it impossible to find anything older than 2 years ago...

It's not that hard to search for old content on google. Just limit the year in the search filter. Anyway, I found mentions of this feature up to 2008 back. I guess it was there since mostly the beginning.
