Well, this isn't quite true. Emacs will create backup files when you
edit one and you can ask Emacs to create new backups every time you save

See later response as
TL;DR: I use a combination of git (as Boyd has suggested, committing
changes every transaction) and rsync to back up to a different device.
Longer version: there are 2 different issues here:
1. micro-management of information, e.g. changes and reasons for those
changes
2. keeping back ups in
Store your ledger.dat in a private git repository (gitlab or github) and do
a commit and push every transaction. Then you don't really even need a
backup.

The backup was at least 70 if not a lot more hours of work ago.
rm is a very efficient file removal tool so I did waste some time on
