Awesome! I think I found them under: http://fossology.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fossology/trunk/fossology/utils/backup/
I dont have access to svn at the moment, so I'll check it out via svn at my work. I actually admin all our Version Control Systems at work and have been using Git quite a bit. I will acces and look over the scripts on Monday @ work.
