   If you want to back up the project XML file, (assuming Linux), you could do a script step like this. You should be able to extend this after you get the idea. 

config_file="$JENKINS_HOME/jobs/$JOB_NAME/config.xml"

cp $config_file $config_file.`date +'%F_%H_%M_%S’`

   Or something like

cp $config_file /some/backup/dir/config.xml.`date +'%F_%H_%M_%S’`

Hi, 

 I didn't get exact use case as in what do you mean by backup project really and project or few files!!  

 Simply copying those files with your script is also fine, 

but you can go for archiving artifacts option, which you could open from job also!
