I have a cron job which commits my home directory into a Git repository every minute. Surprisingly, this puts no noticeable load on the computer.
Every week, I run a script which prunes commits out of the commit history so that at any time N in the past, commits are spaced no closer than N/365. That is, 1 year ago, they are spaced 1 day apart. Once a week, I rsync a copy of the .git directory to a free box.com account (10 GB of storage), which is just big enough to contain the most recent two copies. Box.com is convenient because you can mount it as a disk using WebDAV. You can even execute Git commands directly on the mounted box.com files!
