Your backup is only as good as your last restore
You should back up regularly. But you must also remember to do restores nearly as frequently. Your backup is only as good as your last restore. A restore attempt is comparable to running your test suites, and you don't run those only when bugs are discovered? Do you?

well, does it contain e.g. all your binaries?? That being said, I think for many things a CVS and a few people actively updating is sufficient. :-)
