Have you thought about using the FreeBSD perforce server?  It's invaluable
for things like checkpointing.  One of the main reasons Peter set it up
was that people were walking around with months of work on notebooks at
conferences, and he was concerned they'd drop/lose/have stolen/destroy
the notebooks and the project would lose a lot of work.
