    Hallo!
    I am running rsync-2.6.2-1.fc2.0 on fedora 2 server. I use incremental
    backup with rsync, and I have 7 folders that are rotated on a daily basis.
    At the moment I run backup only one time each day.
    /home-area on my server uses 18G, and all the 7 backups together fill up
    19G on my usb-disk, so I think my script works okay. It looks like this:
    rsync -verbose -progres -a /mnt/usbd/daglig/backup1
    My question is: Can anyone help me with a script that takes backup of for
    example the 5 last revisions of the files on /home, so that backup1
    contains version 1 of a file, backup2 contains version 2 of a file and so
    on? course if a file has noe revision it should only be kept in its
    originalyy state in backup1.
    I have googled for this for quite a while but I have not found anything so
    far, so I hope someone can give me som advice on this.
    Thanks a lot!
    Bjorn
