Isn't that what Dscho and others have mentioned a few times now?
Initially you git clone the repo, every few hours you have cron do a
git pull and daily you do 'rm yesterday.tar.gz && mv today.tar.gz
yesterday.tar.gz && tar czvf today.tar.gz .git '. Why would git need a
'backup script' for something so trivial? I reckon everybody wants a
different type of backup too, so creating a 'git backup' would
probably not be very usefull to most.
