That info can be found with a big search effort, but even then the
explanation is rather cryptic. However, I assumed this method for my
backups (and tested with restores):

Sunday  dump 0          Full
Monday dump 1           incremental
Tuesday dump 2  incremental
Wednesday dump 3        incremental
Thursday dump 4 incremental
Friday dump 5           incremental
Saturday dump 6 incremental

If the above is incorrect, I will appreciate being corrected....
