I personally like Snapback2, which basically uses rsync but uses hard links to make nice hourly, daily, weekly (etc) backup dirs but the hard links help save you from eating disc unnecessarily. http://www.perusion.com/misc/Snapback2/ It's not under heavy development, but it just works and has a pretty easy configuration.
