Imagine the following scenario:

  • on Day 1 I create a text document on Google Drive.
  • on Day 2 I edit it.
  • on Day 3 I share it with John so that "John can edit".

Can John see the version from Day 1 in the revision history, or should I create a new document and share this one if I want to hide the old versions from John?

Yes, totally. These small example shows a document shared with me on june 2nd; and I'm able to see all the previous edits (the document was created on june 1st)

The versions change view of the document
