rsync help


I'm an rsync newbie trying to write a backup script for my server. What I'd like to do is make a full backup every Sunday of the local directory /Source to the local directory /Destination ,then do incremental backups monday through saturday to directories named after the day of the week.

The next full backup and incrementals would then go in a new directory named after the date under /Destination

I've tried some example scripts and looked all over, but they are really hard for me to make sense of and figure out how to do this.

Any help would be really appreciated,

Thanks,
