- You are working on a file, making many versions, without using git.
If you're like me you would just copy/paste the file and get 'foo (copy1)', 'foo (copy2)' or worse : 'foo (copy1) (copy1)'.
Now with `bk foo.py` you get 'foo_2020-06-04-18-28.py'.
- You are in a folder and want to archive it.
You would normally move-up the FS, then try to remember `tar` flags, then compress, then come back-down to the folder.
Now with `bk -z .` you stay where you are and the job is done, creating '../yourcurrentdir_2020-06-04-18-28.zip'
