If you
want to store the new, changed files, use one or more --compare-dest
options (one pointing at an old full backup, and an extra option for any
intervening incrementals).

This approach won't work because rsync will skip a file if it is in
the same state now as in any of the backups, not just the most recent
one.  Thus, if I change a file and change it back, the fact that I
changed it back would not be recorded.
