Hi,

Something similar here: a basic script that create a copy with the time
and a version number. It's like a poor VCS (version control system)
but it works everywhere if you can use Bash.

Use:
ellendhel@slackware:~$ touch testfile
ellendhel@slackware:~$ mkbackup testfile
`testfile' -> `testfile-2013-06-06-01'
ellendhel@slackware:~$ mkbackup testfile
`testfile' -> `testfile-2013-06-06-02'
ellendhel@slackware:~$ mkbackup testfile
`testfile' -> `testfile-2013-06-06-03'
ellendhel@slackware:~$
Sorry, it's in French but I can spend some time to translate the script
and wrote a short description if needed. It's probably not foolproof
and it works with only one file at the time. There is also another script
to use that one with KDE.
