Don’t use a fancy tool to implement a simple tool? I’m sure that’s a rule somewhere.
But also don't use more tools than you need. And good backup isn't notably simpler than a VCS.
Ah, I'm of the "whatever gets the job done with the least amount of effort" school.
Using libgit2 bindings is the “least amount of effort” to implement periodic backup? And even if it may corrupt your repo?[1]
