Restore Milestone (DEPRECATED)
This command is no longer needed.

GSD ► DEPRECATED
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
This command is no longer needed.
**Old workflow (deprecated):**
1. {{COMMAND_PREFIX}}complete-milestone # Mark complete
2. {{COMMAND_PREFIX}}archive-milestone # Move to milestones/
3. {{COMMAND_PREFIX}}restore-milestone # Retrieve from milestones/ ← YOU ARE HERE
**New approach:**
Archives in `.planning/history/v{X.Y}/` are permanent and git-tracked.
There is no need to restore — simply reference files directly or use
git to view historical versions.
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
## Accessing Archived Milestones
**View milestone history:**
```bash
ls .planning/history/
Read archived files:
cat .planning/history/v1.0/ROADMAP.md
View at specific git tag:
git show v1.0:ROADMAP.md
List all milestones: {{COMMAND_PREFIX}}list-milestones
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Why No Restore?
The new workflow archives to permanent history/ with mirrored directory structure. Files are git-tracked and always accessible. Restoring would conflict with the current active milestone.
If you need to reference old planning artifacts, use bash commands to read them directly from history/ or use git commands to view historical commits.

Exit immediately without executing any operations.
