Recently I accidentally whipped out a directory with important stuff, and now I'm starting to think about the best ways to have backups, a remote copy It's already in place but I was thinking, about



A scripts that replicates my directory structure in another directory, and makes hard links for all the files in the directory, so In case I delete something It still exists.



But my question here is,




  • Does git version control will still work?


  • Should I replicate the structure and make hard links for each file or hard links the the directories?

The idea is that the script will be a cronjob that will update the new files creating them the the link.
