I think a better way than adding copy command to init script would be to use incron <http://inotify.aiken.cz/?section=incron&page=about&lang=en>utility. This utility triggers cron jobs based on file system triggers so you can backup a file when it is changed. You can do SVN/Git commit or even do an rsync so whenever you change the file it is automatically backed up.
