Better yet, there are quite a few backup utilities that do this type
of thing for you automatically. I use afbackup and like it very much,
although it's a client/server system so a bit tough to set up. GNU Tar
can do this automatically as well using its "--incremental"
argument. I'm sure there are at least a couple more available
pre-packaged as *.deb files that I'm missing. Go to
http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages
and search for "backup" in frozen or stable.
