Why are you sure that dar wouldn't work? It makes full and incremental
backups. The only difference is that the increment is based on the last
full backup. IMO, that's a good thing, since it means that you only
need to keep one incremental backup for all files, instead of trying to
find a file that may have been last changed on Tuesday or Wednesday.
