I'm not sure that would be a heavily used feature since I can't think of another game I've played that has "rolling autosaves," but I could be wrong.

The simple solution right now is each time you're done playing, go into the folder where your saved game is stored and copy that folder to another folder on your hard drive, onto a cloud drive or an external hard drive. Label the folder with a date or keep track somehow of the date, and then you'd just have to copy that folder back into your saved games folder if you want to revert to that point in your game. Just remember that if you don't change the name of that duplicate folder, it'll copy over the current version of your saved game.
