I would say this is a medieval method and sadly I have seen this done by 
consults who been working on web sites. I do not recommend this method, 
use git or similar to keep track of files and it even allow you fast 
switch between branches where you test different things.

far easier to just do a "git checkout index.php" if you want to revert 
to the old version and you do not have to worry that you by mistake 
edited a file without making a "BAK/BUP" copy of it.
