New Option: Turn off space-wasting versions and "conflicts".

Yes, I know, if you can get people to waste mass tonnages of space, they can be more easily pressured to upgrade their account.

Still, the versions, and especially the so-called conflicted files, are not only useless (as I do my own version control, thank you very none), but time consuming to repeatedly remove from the files retrieved via zip file downloaded from the website (because your support for Linux sucks, I have to sync manually).
