I run incremental backups of all the important data one my system,
in particular I run hourly incremental backups of my 'home' directory
(I use Linux) and this contains just about everything of significance.
Thus I can never lose more than an hour's work and, if I want to go
back to an earlier situation it's easy. Since they're incremental
backups if nothing changes then no extra space is consumed (except for
a little overhead).
Thus, on a separate drive, on my desktop system I have the following
backups:-
day-2 day-4 day-6 hour-1 hour-2 hour-4 hour-6 hour-8 week-1 week-3
week-5
day-1 day-3 day-5 day-7 hour-10 hour-3 hour-5 hour-7 hour-9 week-2
week-4
On a separate system, out in the garage well away from the house, I
have another 'layer' of incremental backups at longer intervals (day,
month, year) going back several years.
