Daily and weekly backups running at the same time #13

After a little troubleshooting I found out why my daily and weekly backups were running at the same time. Apparently if you set a "day of month" and "day of week" it will execute the command when either condition was met.

I found this in the crontab man page:

Note: The day of a command's execution can be specified by two fields -- day of month, and day of week. If both fields are restricted (ie, are not *), the command will be run when either field matches the current time.
For example, "30 4 1,15 * 5'' would cause a command to be run at 4:30 am on the 1st and 15th of each month, plus every Friday.
