You are on crack. Backups are the user's responsibility, not the software's. Filesystems don't back up your data for you. Databases don't back up your tables for you. Editors don't back up your files for you (at least not the new versions). SCM systems don't back up your repositories for you. If you want backups, YOU have to make them.
