OK, then the only filesystem independent program I know that would be able to do what you like is star. - The solution from David Korn site does differential backups and thus is unable to easily restore single files. - GNU tar fails with incremental restores if there was some specific kind of directory rename between two incrementals. - Other programs do not support incrementals.
