Here is a gerneral warning when using backup software:
There still are quite a lot of them which don´t support case  
sensitive file systems and simply override foo.tex with Foo.tex.
So beware. I noticed this when Synchronize Pro X happily deleted lots  
of my files this way. If a baxkup tool uses a unix command for  
copying chances are good that case sensitive file systems are  
supported (which is the case with e.g CarbonCopyCloner)
