If I use proxmox-backup-client to do a daily backup of a file, will I only have the latest version of the file in the datastore or is there a configuration that allows me to keep all versions of that file for the last week?
 
Hi,
a backup snapshot will always just contain the current state of files/block devices. So you need to take a new backup for each version of the file.
