Much more useful than a time machine lookalike: rsnapshot
http://www.rsnapshot.org/
No fancy gui (who needs it?), .. configurage for as may versions as you
like - hourly, daily, weekly, yearly, and keep each as long as you wish.
The key is using hardlinks on the target filesystem, so browse to any date
(e.g. daly.0) and you have a complete directory listing.
It's not CVS, but in some cases it is more usable.

Thank you Lee. I would go for rsnapshot if I didn't read
http://blog.interlinked.org/tutorials/rsync_time_machine.html
and
http://www.mikerubel.org/computers/rsync_snapshots/
for an hour before seeing your email. I now understand the method of
configuring rsync to make snapshots. I think I will write my own script
based on these two web pages.
