Hi Ben
There was also work done on xdelta which uses the same algorithm as rsync
that was doing work in this area. I haven't looked at it in a while. I think
that it was hosted at source forge.

What you're proposing is
If a change is made to a file it would automatically create a delta either
on the filesystem or in a special area.
A backup could collasp all deltas in the last timeperiod or back them all up
allowing rollback to previouse versions.
The problems with this are
Deltas
What I would like it to create a backup server that maintains a copy of all
the files on a server and also maintains a copy of 20 or so deltas so that
the last twenty or so revisions can be rebuilt. Is this possible or what
would be the best approach to create such a beast?
