Argh! [1] - just learn / get used to using a version control system locally (e.g. mercurial, bazaar, git); [2] - learn to make backups with that version control system (e.g. how Massimo pushes his changes out to launchpad, for example, you can do the same to push to another repository - on another disk, on another machine)
[3] - in a pinch, learn to use rsync (with exclude lists, and -avup flags, for example) [4] - if you really, really want to use "old fashioned" distribution methods, go ahead and tar up your directory.
