Hello,

I use rsnapshot. It does not make tar files of difference but several 
directories, all showing the full archive at a date, but with the magic of 
hard links and rsync, it stores only files wich have changed.

There's also rdiff-backup, but restores can only be done with rdiff-backup, 
that's ennoying for me.

Also, dirvich.
