A Few Words about Version Control

File-system based backing up is the basic approach that website staff will use for "immediate" backups under the control of website staff.

Backups to tape, etc., will be provided by I.T. services according to company I.T. server policy.

Re: buildlist.xml It's recommended to treat this file as more of a "database" than a simple content text file. Create backup directories named "Monday", "Tuesday" etc. through "Friday". In these, at the end of each day store your current version of buildlist.xml file. (You might also consider storing your NAV2.xml there, as it too is "database-like" in its importance to the site, though it will change only infrequently.)
