I can't imagine doing any kind of work that evolves over time (even a few days' time) without using some kind of revision control system. I don't know how much people use git for purposes other than software, but it seems like a reasonable means of backing up and tracking revisions of any type of file. Github offers private repositories starting at $7 per month. I investigated whether any of the cloud storage providers also offer any type of revision control.
