I manually run a script to dump the mysql database after I close
Gnucash, compress it, and copy it to a server. That could probably be
more automated by including the call to gnucash in the script, but
manual backups are fine for me.
I do see that Gnucash creates files in ~/.gnucash/translog/ presumably
for the transactions that were done in the session. I didn't see
anything else that resembled a backup.
