I am sure somebody will find a tool for you, but as a quick solution you |
| 20 |
may consider running find -ls and store its output and then tar |
| 21 |
everything that has been modified since last tar. |
| 22 |
Having list of files you will be able to find out which files have been |
| 23 |
deleted, and having these files in some previously made tarball you will |
| 24 |
be able to restore them when needed. |
| 25 |
Rsync would not save you the deleted files. |
| 26 |
|

You just need some work to fit this simple thing to your own needs. :) |
