yes.. rdiff sounds like a good thing to do..
        - make a 1 line change and only save that one line diff changes

- but if one creates a 10MB.file  and 100MB.file  and 1GB.file...
        - thhose 10MB files have to be saved daily ... 
        ( guess no different thant he current daily incrementals

        - problem is we cannot reset the "special directory"  to now also
        include the new 10MB.file ... and want to only save the new
        changes of the 10MB.file

        - if we do recreate a new "special directory", than the previous
        set of diff changes are lost ?? since those diffs was applied to
        a different master special directory ??

and yes.. a good way to do backups across the net ... little/minimal data
traffic

sounds like a fun problem to solve ??
