Hi Bacukppcers,

My suggestion is to avoid using such things as FS snapshots during the
day to avoid work losses.

An addition to BPC could do the trick, preferably saving the result in
another directory than the main one, by checking which files have been
touched the present day and save them automatically; it may be triggered
from a crontab. And before each complete backup, BPC would empty this
daily directory for the next day.

This way, if we take an hypothesis of an hourly crontab, clumsy users
would be able to recover their work very rapidly with at most one hour
loss - and the hourly backups being confined to only touched files
should be quite transparent/invisible/lightweight for them.

How about that ?
