You will also be able to set up an use a continous integration

you should be)
For a one-person project? You're joking. It would take me weeks to
learn to use such a complex tool, and then I have to operate some kind
of a server, then some kind of equally unfamiliar client ... that even
has *security* implications, since I have to make sure that the server
isn't visible to the outside world if I start running a server of some
sort.

My current project is a one-person project, part of my academic
research. I keep a subversion repository for it on a university server,
which provides both a revision history and an off-site backup. I use an
ssh tunnel so that the files in transfer to/from the server are encrypted.
If I didn't want an off-site backup, I would do revision control locally.
For one thing, it gives one great freedom to experiment. If I want to
try something out, I make sure I'm fully checked in, and do it. If it
doesn't work out, I just revert the previous version.
I realize that this may not be a good time to experiment with revision
control for you, but do not eliminate the idea just because you are
working on a one-person project. I don't think it would take you weeks
to learn.
