Save backup files with extension .pacsave.n
Teach pacman to save backup files with extension .pacsave.n, where n is a positive integer. The current backup file shall be saved as <name>.pacsave, while existing .pacsave.n files will be renamed to <name>.pacsave.n+1 Example: 1. You have subversion installed in your local repo. /etc/conf.d/svnserve is a file to be backed up. It contains local modifications 2. You remove subversion from your repo. /etc/conf.d/svnserve is backed up as /etc/conf.d/svnserve.pacsave 2. You install subversion again 3. You edit /etc/conf.d/svnserve 4. You remove subversion. The existing /etc/conf.d/svnserve.pacsave is renamed to /etc/conf.d/svnserve.pacsave.1 and /etc/conf.d/svnserve is backed up as /etc/conf.d/svnserve.pacsave Signed-off-by: Pang Yan Han <pangyanhan@gmail.com> Rebased from original email and adjusted for util-common usage.
