I like this sort of, I am using a separate dir (/home/.private/.snapshots/...) for my backups using retrospekt, but like the timevault using inotify. This is great, snapshoting just a file when it needs it. I like that. I do like retrospekt's timeline in konqueror tho.

What would be great is the possibility of using that directory for my snapshots, then mirroring them to my usb drive when it is plugged in in teh office. Or maybe when I plug in the usb drive it makes a monthly, or weekly snap plus mirroring the currently snaps.
