Autoversion
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work):
It checks selected folders for changes and automatically backups changed files. Later, you can restore any version.
Main feature of this project - convenience. Of course, it is NOT replacement for svn, git or any other control version system.
For intallation just extract files and run ./install.pl so:
$ tar xf autoversion.tar.gz
$ cd autoversion
$ ./install.pl
P.S. You need perl-Archive-Zip package installed.

Hey! First: This looks very nice. But I have some questions: How does it work? I mean, where and how get the "old" files saved and can I delete some and not all old versions of a file. How is the impact of this software on the disk space? Best regards!
Hi. When you enables monitoring on some directory, the program creates subdirectory .autobackup and makes zip archives on every changed file. For example, if you enables monitoring of /home/user/documents then the program creates directory /home/user/documents/.autobackup Now is impossible to limit used space, but I hope I'll add this in next version.
Ok this sounds very nice! I think it is very useful for some folders / documents. Thank you very much for your fast response and your work!
Added limit. Now it is possible up to 100 versions for each file, after it the script removes oldest version. No any special configurable options was added.
Yeah this is very nice! Thank you very much for your effort!
